Students will learn to express themselves through different techniques and progress through each stage of the drawing until they have a finished piece truly worthy of hanging on your fridge.

CREATIVE WRITING Students can express themselves freely through a wide range of vocabulary games and writing exercises. Practice writing expository, narrative, and argument essays through an innovative, engaging pedagogy that encourages creativity and originality.

MAGIC Kids will learn the foundational skills to release their inner magician. Skills taught in this class include hand-eye coordination, public speaking, humor, prop making, costuming, and character development. At the end of the course, each student will have a goodie bag of all the props used for the magic taught in class to take home.

MULTI MEDIA ARTS Learn different mediums, such as watercolor, rock painting, animal drawing and more, while creating one masterpiece. Teachers will break down using simple shapes, followed by coloring and shading techniques using oil pastels or water pastels, and will conclude the session with an overview of painting techniques.

SIGN LANGAUGE This class will let students sign in full sentences by the end of the course. Learning sign language is like learning any other foreign language. It helps enhance your child’s cognition ability, memory, small motor skill, and visual ability as this is a visualfocused language.

SKETCHING Learn how to quickly and accurately sketch animals and objects! Experience shading techniques like cross hatching and learn manga basics. Students will have multiple sketches and will come away with techniques that will aid in all types of art making.

Brick Tech

ADVANCED STEM WITH LEGO® Each LEGO® project will showcase relevant STEM concepts, such as a motorized helicopter to discuss gear drives or a skyscraper with bricks to introduce overlapping construction, fostering hands-on learning for participants.

Students will be experimenting with a variety of AI and ML tools from language models to art, sound, and animation.

CREATE YOUR OWN VIDEO GAME USING AI Students will use Scratch coding language to learn fundamental concepts of X and Y coordinates, loops, variables, functions, if-then-else statements, etc. while building their own game. Along with the features of Scratch™ 3.0 and Visual Block Coding, students will also get to learn about evolving features of AI.

CLEANTECH WITH ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT KITS In this course, students will develop a working understanding of electric cars, windmills, solar panel devices, and hydroelectricity by using electrical circuits to get an exposure to clean technology.

DESIGN YOUR OWN TOYS WITH A 3D PEN We will be using 3D pens and plastic filament to “draw” in three dimensions. This class’s objective is to introduce students to 3D printing technology while emphasizing the significance of good design principles.

HANDS-ON-CODING BOT PLAY Children will explore the wonderful world of coding and logical thinking using physical tiles to make their bot move, sing, dance, and create beautiful artwork. Coding concepts such as; sequences, loops, and subroutines will be introduced through fun projects.

INVESTING IN STOCKS, BONDS, AND MORE… It is never too early to expose our youth to investing in passive sources of income such as stocks and bonds, as it opens their eyes to the power of delayed gratification.

MONEY MATTERS This fun and interactive course helps students develop an understanding of currency, exchange rates, interest rate sensitivity, supply/demand, budgeting, and taxes.

YOUR STARTUP PITCH This unique course will help your teens develop an understanding of the key ingredients of a successful business, but they will be surprised to find out its applicability in day-to-day life.

SOUTH BAY WILDFLOWERS California has an interesting and unusual geologic history and as a result, our hillsides bloom with rare and endemic wildflowers in Spring. This will be a slow hike uphill through the serpentine soils at the base of the Santa Cruz mountains, near Calero County Park. We will hike for about 5 miles and look for rare plants and interesting landscapes.

WILDFLOWERS OF FORT ORD The oak woodlands and vernal pools of this National Monument are the largest stretches of undeveloped coastal land along Monterey Bay and it is a great spot for Spring wildflowers. We will take an easy walk through the trees, along sandy trails, stopping to look at the many species of unusual plants and flowers that thrive here. We will hike for about 4 miles and discuss the history, ecology and future of these beautiful public lands.

ESTERO AMERICANO KAYAK Estero Americano is a State Marine Area on the northern edge of Marin County. This pristine estuary offers protected paddling with beautiful scenery, wildlife and interesting history. The only way to access the slough is by small boat and the meandering water enters a fjord-like landscape before it reaches the beach. Spend the night in nearby Bodega Bay or Sebastopol and make a weekend out of it.

ELKHORN SLOUGH SUNSET KAYAK Elkhorn Slough is one of the best places on the west coast to paddle and watch wildlife during the sunset hour. Otters, seals, sea lions and many species of birds live here and allow close approach by kayak without being disturbed. The calm waters of this protected inlet make for a perfect summer outing as the sun goes down.

PILLAR POINT HIKE Near the charming town of Princeton in Half Moon Bay, lies a beautiful headland looking out over the Pacific Ocean. We will walk uphill to take in the view and then descend slowly to the beach. At the water, we will look for an exposed reef famous for its tide pools and seashore creatures. After lunch, we hike back over the headland to our cars and complete our day, walking about 5 miles total.
