“Learning doesn’t stop just because its summer…
and neither does the fun”

A combination of a strong academic program, weekly
special activities,
and outside play…Something new each day of the week!

The Montessori Work Cycle
Our Summer Camp
2010 will continue with the Montessori Work Cycle with at
least 3 hours of work each day. The summer educational
program will be presented with an emphasis on fun and
excitement so as not to “burn out” our students. We will
teach our campers using special classroom guests and
outdoors educational programs that will complement the
"Montessori Day".
An AMI Teacher will lead our summer program. She will be
guided in her work by a 1-page summary of each child’s
development provided by the student’s Teacher. This will
include what lessons have been given during the school
year and what is needed to keep each child on their
educational plan.
Our Summer Camp Lead will provide a written summary of
the lessons/work completed to each child's respective
teacher at the end of camp.
