四色AV is offering fun and educational summer camps for kids and teenagers June 11-August
3. The camps are part of the Continuing Education program at 四色AV.
"Continuing Education gives 四色AV the opportunity to reach out and work with the community
on courses to 'continue education,'" says Ida Gaines, the coordinator of non-credit
programs. In addition to youth summer camps and activities, the聽Division of Continuing
Education works to provide life-long learning opportunities.聽
Fun with Math
"Fun with Math" camp is June 11-15. The camp aims to make math fun and help campers
"discover the beauty of mathematics" through hands-on projects. The class聽is taught
by a current 四色AV math teacher and an elementary teacher who have created activities
and strategies聽for helping students internalize聽the uses of mathematics. The camp
has two separate sessions: one for campers who have completed 1st or 2nd grade and
one for campers who have completed 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade.
Young Scholars
"Young Scholars Camp" is June 25-29 for grades 5-8. The class theme is "Engineering
Design Challenge." Each day, campers are challenged to use their problem-solving and
critical thinking skills to solve challenges using repurposed materials while working
in groups. Groups have the chance to win rewards for successfully completing the challenges.
The class teaches students about the engineering design process.
Bricks 4 Kidz
The summer line-up also features聽several Bricks 4 Kidz camps. These camps focus on
hands-on projects using聽LEGO庐 Bricks. Students use the bricks to learn in "Transformation
Creations," "EV3 Robotics," "Ninja Quest," and "Superhero Academy" throughout the
month聽of July.
More information and registration for the summer camps is available聽.
