Learning Categories
Just like last summer, we will continue to incorporate STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) into our program! Our children will channel their inner artists, sculptors, engineers, authors, and more! We will cook, learn new sports, and explore our interests in STEAM throughout the summer! Themed activities include, but are not limited to:
ART
Crafts are fun, but art is even more rewarding! This summer we will continue to grow as artists as we sculpt, paint, design murals, and learns skills including blending with oil pastels and weaving. Our masterpieces will be inspired by artists such as Vincent Van Gogh, Alexander Calder, and other artists of the past. We will present our artwork at the end of the year with our Summer Showcase!
ACTIVE LEARNING
This summer, we will be active throughout the summer! We will learn the fundamentals of a variety of sports, from rugby to foot golf to basketball. Our in-house curriculum focuses on not just play, but learning the skills, rules, and techniques of the sports. We will visit parks, indoor gyms, and turf fields!
FOOD
Food can take many forms and we will learn about many of them this summer! We will cook, garden, and garnish as we learn about food from farm to table. We will grow vegetables, make our own food, and decorate treats as we become master chefs and learn how our food ends up on our table.
MAKERSPACE
Few things are as exciting or rewarding as creating something yourself! Children will channel their inner Einstein, Galileo, and Marie Curie throughout the summer. We will learn about famous scientists and engineers before building, designing, and redesigning our own creations! We will explore the science behind levers, pulleys, and other simple machines. We will also build gliders, design circuits, and more!
Writing
What can we create using our words? We will explore this summer with our writing
program each week. We will have activities for each age group that explore collaborative
stories, creating stories, writing our own plays, and more as we channel our creativity
with paper and pencil!
