  DAY: Mondays, 3:45-4:45 p.m.
  COST: $125 
  LOCATION: Lyman Campus
  INSTRUCTORS: Snapology of Cleveland
  
  

  Snapology’s mission is to provide children an opportunity to engage in “playful learning” activities that will stimulate their creativity and spark an interest in learning. 
  
  

  Research has shown that many of children’s best learning experiences come when they are engaged not simply in interacting with materials, but in designing, creating, and inventing with them. Our classes are based coupon several strategies that have been shown to maximize learning through the use of various activities and technologies in creative, playful, and “learningful” ways.
  
  

  This session of Snapology is "Snapology Storytellers." Once upon a time... your child became the author of their favorite stories! In this program, students will explore the primary elements of storytelling as they design their own unique tales using LEGO bricks. Maybe they will dazzle us with details of faraway lands, with amazing adventures of superheroes, or even with science experiments gone very, very wrong. The possibilities for creation are endless!

  
  

  Students will be supervised by After School at Laurel and receive a snack between the end of the school day and the beginning of their activity.

  COST: $125 
  INSTRUCTORS: Shannon Lukz and Chuck Allen
  LOCATION: Butler Campus
  

  
  

  Adventure Girls(AG) was started in 2012 by Mrs. Lukz and Mr. Allen as a way for Third, Fourth and Fifth Grade girls to build resilience through challenging games and activities, promote health and improve fitness through adventure-packed programming. Participants also have many opportunities to develop their leadership and communication skills through group problem-solving tasks.
  
  

  Research shows many benefits to being exposed to “stress episodes” in building resilience and trust. Adventure Girls not only fills that role but also provides many opportunities for delivering humor, which proves to “convey intelligence…and confidence.”

  Leadership and adventure skills are developed in our Adventure Girls setting. AG is an excellent way for adventurous third, fourth, and fifth graders to sharpen both adventure, survival, and leadership skills.
  
  

  Adventure Girls takes place outside no matter the weather so please help the girls be prepared for the predicted weather that day. We will supply a snack but girls are welcome to bring additional snacks to help fuel their experiences.
