Community Enrichment Program
The Summer Fun Summer Learning community enrichment program supports meaningful educational activities during the summer months. The program provides “fun” research based learning experiences for children ages six through thirteen. Parents are invited and encouraged to attend an end-of-the-week event that highlights the activities such as skits, talent shows, spelling bees, and more, in which their child participated.
Enrichment Program Goals:
- To provide enrichment activities that reinforce student learning.
- To engage students in scientifically based reading research learning through fun activities.
- To engage parents in their child’s learning process through the use of skits and other performance activities.
- To bridge the summer learning gap children experience between the end of one school year and the beginning of the next.
Download the curriculum guide and student journal for step-by-step instructional units in the dramatic arts (drama and plays, dance, poetry, dramatic and story reading, and music). Activities are embedded with scientifically based reading research and are provided for a five-week period. Each unit included daily instructional activities blocked in two hour periods. Although the activities are directed at the six through thirteen year-old age group, children somewhat younger and older than this age span will be able to participate in the activities.
The National Center for Family Literacy Community Literacy Initiative was supported by a generous grant from The UPS Foundation.
