2019 Schedule

​Jul 22-26

Various activities are incorporated throughout the day, from music, reading, yoga, math, writing, theatre, to free form play. As a result, kids are encouraged to see the connection between all these areas.

MUSIC

Incorporating vocal music and exercises throughout the day encourages participants to develop their voice while focusing on shruthi, kalapramanam, and svarasthanam.

READING & DISCUSSION

Each day of the camp, we focus on one text or piece of literature (poems, verses, short stories) and follow up with discussions involving each and every member of the group. By encouraging participants to share their ideas and opinions, we are able to foster critical thinking and observation. We continue this theme throughout the day.

YOGA & TAI CHI

While keeping participants mentally engaged, physical strength, endurance, elasticity, and balance are necessary for a healthy lifestyle. Morning exercise practices include running and yoga, during which participants are coached to improve their overall physique.
​

MATH

We foster a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts through hands-on opportunities in order to better understand the inner workings of the complex subject. We encourage participants to discuss with each other and work collaboratively to culture an interesting and fun learning experience.

WRITING

Throughout the day, no matter which activities take place, we encourage critical thinking and questioning. Expressing oneself is an important aspect of intellectual development, and we try to inspire both verbal and written responses in a reflective format to nurture analytical skills.
​

SCIENCE

Fun to learn demonstrations involving physics and physical sciences offer an opportunity to learn through hands-on experiences and subsequent discussions.

PLAY!

Unstructured play time is vital to social development, and also offers an opportunity to let go and relax. A variety of outdoor games, including amateur soccer, basketball, and other outdoor games are usually played.
