Academic Fun & Fitness Camp - June 11th through July 20th, 2012
Un-School Camp: An Academic Fun and Fitness Summer Camp at Lakeland Community College sponsored by the Creative Education Institute.
This unique camp is for children ages 6 to 18 with learning differences: Attention Deficit /Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Dyslexia, or Asperger’s Syndrome.
Children with learning differences often become so frustrated by school experiences that they never realize learning can be lots of fun. Campers play and have fun while gaining new perspectives on learning and developing the social skills and self-esteem needed to be successful.
At this “un-school” camp, instructors and aides use games, multi-sensory techniques – eyes, ears, touch, muscle movement -- and systematic instruction to improve basic reading and math skills. Science, theater arts, poetry, and computer mini-courses let children explore the world beyond the traditional classroom. One of the most popular activities is theater week where the campers script and act in a play. Every camper that participates receives a copy of the videotaped production.
Conveniently located at Lakeland Community College, the Academic Fun & Fitness Summer Camp will be held June 11th through July 20th . In addition to learning basic skills, the campers will enjoy many activities, making friends, playing sports, and having fun. We offer full and half day sessions, before and after care, and lunch for full day campers.
In its eleventh year since its founding, camp has made a tremendous impact on children’s lives with many previous campers planning to return this year. Several parents have shared their experiences with how camp transformed their children’s lives.
"Grant’s reading skills improved significantly in your 6-week camp”
“Your counselors are great,” say Rose and Mike Foti, parents of a 6-year old.
Another pleased parent says, “My son was able to go to camp just like the neighbors and have stories to tell about being a kid. He talked about camp even over the weekends”
