Summer Enrichment Program

Project THINK is a non-profit academic enrichment program designed to stimulate and motivate students to reach out to a wide variety of interest areas. Exceptional educators motivate children to develop thinking skills which will enable them to participate and succeed in a growing, challenging 21st century. Emphasis is on active learning; children learn by using all of their senses in hands-on activities. Professional guest speakers enhance the program. Master credentialed teachers, classroom aides, and specialists provide a small ratio of students to instructor, enabling them to offer small group and individual instruction. Students may register for either one or both of the 3-week sessions as teachers plan a variety of curriculum.

Local field trips and professional guest speakers enhance the program. Classroom aides and specialists provide a small ratio of students to instructor, enabling them to offer small group and individual instruction.

Students may register for either one or both of the 3-week sessions as teachers plan a variety of curriculum choices to stimulate the children’s curiosity and interest for the entire period.

Color wheel

In art class, the students created a color wheel which is made using the primary colors and mixing primary colors to make secondary colors.

Art

sketchy whale

Art is full of examples of underwater art, and you will learn all about the ocean. For example, you could:

Draw a nice whale tail, sketch a design, or draw a turtle.

Make a sculpture from a clothes hanger and nylon ballet socks.

Try making a nice cool wave, making a color wheel, or draw an octopus.

Ocean Food Web

In Think Tank  students learned how the ocean food web works. Without plankton, no life would exist in the ocean.  Producers absorb energy from the sun. The producer, plankton,  is eaten by other plankton, which is in turn eaten by a larger creature.  The shark is at the top of the food web, and eats everything else in the ocean.

Read the latest news discussing the decline of plankton in the ocean. Learn more about the food web from Robert Stewart’s website.
