| There
are two main categories for our projected programs; Summer sessions and
After-school sessions - the format for each would be very different. Participation
in one does not obligate nor guarantee participation in another. Students
(and/or parents) may pick and choose what they will attend.
After-school
Programs
There is so many fun things that we can do after school has let out that
your student will miss the bus to attend. This is an opportunity for them
to learn new skills and live new experiences that most will never receive
in traditional classroom settings - all while having FUN at the same time.
All of our activities has the potential of developing talents within your
student that no one else knew was there. Activities can consist of, but
are not limited to, the following:
- Homework
tutoring
- Book club
reading/discussions
- Vocabulary
development
- Art workshops
(painting, drawing, dioramas, figures)
- Computer
skills training (educational/office applications/internet)
- Web Design
workshops (software tools, homepages)
- Graphic
Design and layout workshops
- Creative
Writing workshops and Publishing seminars
- Interactive
storytelling workshops
- Computer-aided
music/audio/video production
Summer
Programs
Our summer program is our BIGGEST project. Whereas our after-school program
consists of many different activities that are initially independent from
each other, the summer program is centered solely around a Role-playing
game system that is designed specifically for the educational and social
development of all participants. Groups of around 8 students, aged 10
to 16 are matched with an experienced Storyteller that will assist them
in the creation of interactive story in which they all play their roles
as characters.
Imagine this...your student, after a whole year of dredging off to school
every morning while you go to work... your child can now engage in a creative
group project that draws upon every ounce of knowledge, talent and social
skills and puts them to the test. They will use what they have developed
all year and actually apply it in a FUN and creative way. This, in recent
pedagogical studies, is an example of a new paradigm of learning.
