Description

Equal opportunity for both sides of the brain!

Our second floor Upper School Campus will host Brain Camp, the perfect summer experience for children entering grades 1-3 and a perfect fit for play with a purpose. Mornings will be spent on sports and other physical or creative activities. Afternoon themes will vary by session:    

June 27 - July 8:  Young Linguists 
Students will be immersed in their choice of Hindi, Mandarin or Spanish, drawing on related cultural activities such as music, dance and cuisine.

July 11 - July 22:  How Our Nation Was Born
Afternoons will bring the acclaimed How Our Nation Was Born, a fantastic retelling of American history that focuses on songs from the colonial period, crafts, games and discussion. Led by our own Ms. Cristina and Ms. Rose, this experience includes reenacting the Continental Congress that gave birth to this nation, making laws and much more!

July 25 - July 29:  Lego Robotics I - Intro to Intermediate
Get ready to explore a whole new world of Lego! Now students can design, build and program their very own Lego robots and watch them spring to life. Students will learn basic techniques of mechanical design and computer science by building and programming with Lego's Mindstorms NXT. This is great hands-on learning and playing with a technology twist that will challenge students to innovate and exercise their inner inventor!

August 1 - August 5:  Scratch Video Game Design
On your mark...  Get set...  Code! You already know your children love video games, but now they can learn how to program their own. Students will learn how to create a variety of different games using Scratch, an introductory program to coding developed by MIT's Media Lab. They will also learn beginner to advanced programming techniques that will develop their critical problem solving skills in Math and Science and boost their creativity in the arts. Learning has never been this much fun!
