Orinda SUMMER Enrichment Program

Elementary Program 1st–5th Grade: A Run Through the Jungle

Rainforest Adventures Entering Grades K–5

Jim Bartleman, Program Director

Welcome to the Rainforest Adventures! Our program, taught by some of the finest teachers in Orinda’s school district, has featured a high quality summer enrichment experience for Orinda’s school children for almost three decades! Join us for Summer Enrichment 2014 as we take a ‘Run Through the Jungle’ to study one of the world’s most interesting and yet least understood places: the Rainforest! Even though they contain more than half of the world’s plants and animals, we are just beginning to explore and understand these amazing places that are home to amphibians, birds, insects, mammals, plants and reptiles that are truly astonishing—such as butterflies with an 8 inch wingspan, plants that build structures to water themselves (bromeliads) ants that cut leaves to build structures, unbelievably beautiful orchids, and fascinating versions of monkeys, song birds, cats, dolphins, frogs and snakes. Spend a busy summer with us as we make models of many of the above creatures and plants and learn the cultures of native peoples and those who live nearby. As always, we will build, paint, draw, cartoon, write about, craft, sing, dance, learn languages and math as we journey from high in the rainforest’s canopy, down through the understory, and then to the forest floor. Be wildly enriched on our expedition through one of the world’s most captivating places!

For those interested in staying for an afternoon sports program, we now offer a lunch transition ‘lunch bunch program’.

Location: Elementary School TBD

Kindergarten Program: The Gentle Jungle A self-contained 3-hour class. We proudly present, “The Gentle Jungle,” featuring our 4-week Arts and Kindergarten preparation curriculum, lovingly taught by kindergarten specialists, especially designed to ease incoming K-kids into school with a love of learning!

Our “Rain Forest/Jungle” theme gently takes us into a world of amazing animals and absolutely fascinating plant life not widely seen or appreciated, with lots of fun and study for our newest students! Jungle-themed activities in writing, math, science, beginning reading skills, music and art, and featuring very up close looks at butterflies, frogs, bugs, monkeys, birds and jungle-y plants! All woven together in a visual and performing arts style!

The vast new ‘jungle’ of the school world welcomes you!
