Subject: Special Discoveries "The Best Me I Can Be" After School Groups for ages 4-6 and 6-8

Happy New Year! 

 

I just wanted to touch base to let you know that we are gearing up for two exciting new social groups for children ages 4-6 and 6-8.  If you are interested, you will need to complete a student application.  Remember, we serve children based on a first-come, first-served basis.  Spaces are limited, so register early.  Go to http://www.specialdiscoveries.org/spring2006.htm and follow the links to the application.   Here are the details:

 The groups will provide hands-on activities with a focus on “The Best Me I Can Be”:

 

    1.     Pragmatic Language with Peers (also including turn taking, and impulse control)

 

2.      Character Enrichment (including sportsmanship, corroborative play, and building self-esteem)

 

3.     We will also be incorporating literacy into this program thanks, in part, from the Claude and Adele Thomas Fund of Triangle Community Foundation and American Airlines Kids Are Something Special Fund of Triangle Community Foundation.  Topics will be enhanced with age-appropriate (pre) literacy skill building activities and will include take-home enrichment activities to differentiate each student’s ability.

 

¨       Location: Chapel Hill Bible Church (Behind Lowes/Borders off 15/501)

¨       Ages 4-6 and Ages 6-8

¨       Cost: $200 ($50 application fee for new students)

¨       Monday Afternoons, 4:00-5:00 pm

¨       10 weeks:  Feb 6 thru Apr 18 (no session 3/14 due to spring break) ** subject to change pending teacher’s/facility schedule.  Final schedule will be posted soon

 

¨       **free play (with parental supervision) is from 3:30-4:00 and 5:00-5:30. 

 

Requisite Skills:

All students must be able to follow verbal direction in a group setting (3:1 student/teacher ratio minimum) and have emerging pragmatic language skills.

All students will be approved by the instructor prior to enrollment to ensure appropriate placement.

Please review our student behavior policy in the application form.

 

Remember—if you pay on-line, you will still need to send in the registration to secure your slot.

 

Referrals are appreciated.

 

All the best.
