Southern Studies Grades 9-12 Jane Sidey: Park Tudor English Teacher Sven Dubie: Park Tudor Social Studies Teacher 1 credit $1050 June 8 – 19 Classroom 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

June 22 – 26 Travel Southern Studies is a credited, introductory seminar where students will engage in a philosophical enquiry of how environment and place work to shape identity, history, art, music, literature, and culture. Enrolled students will spend two weeks of classroom study followed by one week traveling to several southern states in order to connect experientially with that landscape and geography. Highlights will include participation

30

in a workshop at the Center for the Study of Southern Culture on the campus of the University of Mississippi and a tour of the Equity and Justice Initiative located in Montgomery.

Park Tudor is excited to announce that students will have the opportunity to take a cross-curricular, teamtaught, summer elective in June 2015.

The rich diversity of the Southern artist conjures a peculiar paradox. It forces students to grapple with the problem of reconciling writers, musicians, and photographers as different as William Faulkner, Alice Walker, Natasha Trethewey, B.B. King, Sally Mann, and Eudora Welty as all depicting an essentially Southern experience. Indeed, historians from W.J. Cash to C. Vann

Left to right: Center for Southern Culture, Center for Civil and Human Rights, Margaret Mitchell House, Alabama State Capital.

Woodward to James Cobb have long engaged in a fierce debate of what constitutes Southern identity, and it is important that students add their ideas and perceptions to the conversation. By visiting the cities and places that give rise to these diverse and complex interpretations of what it means to be Southern, students are made visually aware of the living dichotomies of the past and present, Old South and the New South, urban renewal and rural tradition, and homogeneity and diversity.

The class is reading and writing intensive, and students will complete an interdisciplinary project—such as a photo journal, a travelogue, or a poetry portfolio—as their final assessment.

Spanish Immersion Summer Program Francisco Hidalgo (Program Director) World Languages Department Grades K-5 June 8- July 3 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

Price: $375/week (minimum 2 weeks) 15% off if you sign-up for all 4 weeks. (*Note: Registration concludes on May 1st.)

Spanish Immersion Summer Program is back! This is a unique program that combines an outstanding opportunity for learning with a fun and relaxed summer camp.

Immersion is the secret to learning a foreign language.

We are proud to offer this premier language experience for Lower School students.

What do you mean by immersion?

Learning a foreign language by living it.

• The student not only attends formal language classes but also lives the language.

• All classes are taught entirely in Spanish.

• Speaking in another language at any time is discouraged or forbidden.

• All cultural activities are presented and experienced in Spanish.

• The student lives in a completely Spanish-speaking community.

Why immersion?

• We want our students to really learn the language.

• It’s fun.

• Students gain an understanding of a different culture.

• It’s the fastest, most efficient way to improve oral command of a foreign language.

Why Spanish?

Spanish is, after English, the second most widely spoken language in the world. It is spoken by over 400 million people, and it is the official language of 22 countries. In the US alone, it is spoken by an estimated 50 million people with the Latino population as the fastest growing minority in the country.

What can I expect from the program?

• Typically, students who participate in a 4-week immersion program experience a great boost in oral skills.

• Capacity to understand the language improves exponentially, strengthening future learning of Spanish or other languages.

Much more than just language classes!

Improving students’ language skills is our main goal, but we offer much more than that. Our program approaches complete, Spanish cultural immersion in the comfort of Indianapolis. From the moment students enter campus, they are “officially” in Spain. They will not speak English, and they will experience a broad range of the Spanish cultural activities such as music, drama, games, sports and cinema.

A typical day in the immersion program:

• 9 a.m. Passport check-in “Bienvenidos a España” 1st class period: Spanish culture • 10:00 a.m. 2nd Class period: Spanish language and Grammar • 10:50 a.m. Break • 11:00 a.m. 3rd class period: Conversation • 12:00 p.m. lunch and recess • 1:00 p.m. Sports and games • 2:00 p.m. Afternoon activities: Drama, Choir, Latin dances, cooking, swimming, field trips, movies, and more. *Scheduling varies from one division to another.

What is new?

• Parents day: Last year we opened our doors to parents for one day. The experience was fantastic. Therefore, we have decided to make it official. We want you all to come Thursday, July 2, 9 - 11 a.m., to see your student speaking Spanish in our fun learning environment.

• Sign-up by week: In years past some students were not able to commit for a whole month, so they could not join the camp. We decided that this was unfair for those students who wanted to participate, but who needed to attend previously scheduled family events.

For that reason, this year we offer students the option to sign-up in increments of 2, 3, or 4 weeks.
