Engage your child in a fun, supportive, and creative realm of enriching curriculum designed by expert teachers. Strengthen and practice key reading and math success skills through a variety of lively games and activities, such as Reader’s Theater and Multiplication Twister, all within Wheeler’s beautiful 120-acre Seekonk, MA campus, located just minutes from the East Side of Providence.
Rocking Reading & Megahit Math is intended for students entering grades 1 – 4 in the fall, who may need a boost to their reading and math skills before starting the new school year. COVID-19 and distance learning have impacted most students’ academic progress significantly, and this class can help close the COVID gap and avoid the Summer Slide.
The Seekonk campus offers plenty of enjoyable outdoor space for learning in nature while maintaining COVID-19 safe practices, including:
- Stable pods of no more than 8 children
- Low teacher/student ratio of 1:8, with teaching assistants for even smaller groups
- Large, newly built classrooms to spread out for portions of the instruction time and inclement weather
- Properly ventilated classrooms, including HEPA filtration systems for state-of-the-art air purification and safe circulation
- Access to plenty of dedicated outdoor learning station space, separate from the ongoing traditional campers and activities
- Seamless transition to afternoon camp activities while staying in a stable pod
- Individual Cool Kid Tool Kits of materials for each student’s exclusive use
- Continual mask-wearing, hand-washing, and regular sanitizing of used areas, with ongoing modifications in accordance with updated CDC guidance
- On-site nurse throughout the program
