The emergent literacy books of “Interactive Reading Time” address visual discrimination through the introduction of small, controlled vocabulary. “Games Time” provides kinesthetic activity while enhancing visual and auditory skills as related to sound/symbol association, as well as the daily construction of manipulative take-home games. All sessions are both light hearted and meaningful. Participant happiness built on daily measurable success is a priority with Kindergarten Jumpstart. We’ll read about The Farm! The Circus! The Zoo!

Lego Logo brings young technicians into a creative, engineering environment. Not found in stores, the special Lego Logo kits provide extraordinary opportunities for the hands-on construction. Under the guidance of a certified educator, along with detailed technical plans to follow, the participant will build robots, race cars, four-by-four trucks, cranes, pulleys, levers, and more during this energized week of discovery with Lego! Motivated by fun, creativity, and success, the young builder will expand knowledge of math, science, and technology in an exploratory hands-on cooperative environment.

 

FASHION DESIGNERS

 

Category: Youth; 8 – 12 years

Young girls graduate from playing dress up to designing their own fashions by using the same design principles used by professionals. Principles including basic sketching techniques, coordinating colors for the best effect, mixing textures and patterns for scale and perception, and cultural fashion history will be applied to each girls’ personal style and portfolio. Designs come to life with beautifully patterned papers, ribbons, sequins, jewels, and oodles of other embellishments. Collaborative “design team” challenges make this hand on, minds-on adventure into the world of design very exciting. No sewing in this class.
