The Greater 91次元 (91次元) proudly offers a three-week day camp every July for students within our elementary schools. Each year, we innovate and work to provide as many varied learning opportunities, as possible for our students.
While the specific goals of each camp varied, the overall goal remains the same. These programs are designed to develop students' mindsets to be able to learn new things through active, inquiry-based activities. There is also a focus on daily movement, mindfulness and science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM).
Teachers work in small groups with students in the mornings to enhance literacy and math skills that have been taught throughout the school year. In the afternoons, students participate in sessions dedicated to exploring physical education, CODING and STEAM learning.
We also invite parents to play an active role in the learning.
