Montessori Pathways School is proud to present summer enhancement programs for children ages 3-6. Each week is full of engaging ideas and projects. There are many opportunities for learning and creative self-expression. Designed to give families maximum flexibility, children can sign up for the entire camp or for selected weeks, depending on family plans or just to beat the “nothing to do” blues. Each week’s program is independent and self-contained.

          Montessori Pathways School mini-camps will focus on particular topics each week. Our teachers are all early childhood specialists who have many years of classroom experience and have designed these programs to stimulate your child’s interest in learning while keeping it fun.

          Our goal is to provide the campers with an opportunity to retain and develop their skills in a relaxed, summer atmosphere. We will combine exciting adventures with creative opportunities for learning. While forming new friendships, children will have ample time for play, personal growth and free exploration. A portion of the day will be allotted for the exploration of Montessori materials.

          These campers will experience a new theme every week! Each week will include cooking, crafts, music and gym related to the theme of the week. Children will have a lot of fun in our backyard playing games, bathing in the sun and water. Aside from the field trips, we plan to bring many interesting activities to the school as well. The activities include: a petting zoo, Aloha dancers, firefighters with a fire truck, policeman with a police car and many more.

          At Summer Camp 2011, your child will embark upon “Adventures from the Equator to the Arctic. Discovering the Biomes of the World.” At the beginning of camp, the students will create a world map, dividing it into the different biome sections and labeling each biome with a special color. As the camp progresses, we will take a closer look at the biomes, noting their location in relation to the equator, the affect this has on the climate, and the subsequent variation of plant and animal life within. We will also take the time to study the uniqueness of some plants and animals of each biome.           Montessori Pathways School summer hours are 6:45 a.m. – 6:00 p.m., weekly. Parents have a choice of three daily schedules:

• 6:45 a.m. –  6:00 p.m. - $250 per week (Lunch Included)
