A Day of Learning for Ages 8-10, Fridays 9:00-1:30 pm (start date TBA)
Living as an Author:
9:00-10:00 am
Real writing occurs in every experience and observation. Authors witness seed ideas growing at the turn of every corner. Students will be armed with their personal “writer’s notebook” and build strategies of an author. Knowledge of spelling and grammar will help the authors properly arrange words in sentences. Literature written by professional authors will be used as models of great writing across various genres.
Jewelry Making
10:15-11:15 am
Learn how to design and create your own jewelry and accessories. We will learn the basics of jewelry making that includes beading, stringing and weaving. A variety of materials and techniques will be used. Each week, we will learn a new technique and make a new, one-of-a-kind memorable creation.
Yoga:
11:30-12:30 pm
Come learn the basic yoga postures through movement and play. Ms. Kara, a certified yoga and meditation instructor, will introduce mindfulness and breathing practices to tune into physical, mental, and emotional state. A theme will be introduced where the flow of the practice is set to a story and music.
15 minute supervised breaks will follow the 9:00 am and 10:15 am classes, with time for children to play in the fenced-in backyard, eat snacks and socialize.
Lunch/Recess:
12:30-1:30 pm
Optional time to eat and chat with friends. We are happy to offer this time for FREE, if 2 parents would like to volunteer as supervisors for the hour.
$15 extra charge (per day) will be paid to Tutor's Link Learning Center staff, if volunteers are unavailable.
