Any season is football season in America! Participants will work on the overhand throw, catching, and play in thrilling games. To prepare for games, participants will practice basic offensive routes and defensive coverages. Early elementary kids will enjoy fun lead up games like scarf tag. The plan is for participants to experience a NFL playoff style tournament with a Super Bowl!
In our STEAM-based arts & crafts program, we blend education and fun like a perfect recipe! We focus on creating innovative crafts that can work and move, like rockets that can shoot, instruments that make music, and cars that can move. Activities are based on STEAM-principles and teach kids important problem-solving and developmental skills. Students should pack a snack, if desired.
Students will study famous artists in a variety of genres and then create their own masterpieces based on the lesson. We will use acrylic paint, watercolor paint, and oil pastels during this session. Students who join Art-Smart as 4th graders and continue attending each class through 6th grade, will ultimately learn ~30 different art history lessons and create ~30 unique projects. Note: There will be only four classes per session.

The Elementary Drawing program teaches children to deconstruct complex objects into foundational shapes.

Through engaging and relevant subject matter and repetition, children learn to reconstruct images with confidence. Artists can expect enhanced core art skills and improved group behavior and social skills.
Students will follow along with the teacher to songs and choreography. They will also play dance games, such as freeze dance, dancing four corners, center star, follow the leader, dancing red light/green light, and many more. This is a dance fitness class that uses kid-friendly songs, choreography, and dance games. This class helps children make friends, get active after school, and love dance fitness!
This is a life skills course camouflaged as a magic class. While your student will learn a wide range of tricks from making things appear and disappear to reading minds and passing a solid through a solid, each class also features one of the eight traits of a true magician:
