Curious Kids Program For children ages 7 - 12 Ashley Marshall, Director
Wow, that's cool! Curious Kids will expand children's knowledge of the way things work through analytical problem
solving, and investigative explorations that will stretch their imaginations, open their eyes, and fill their minds.
Small projects, active adventure, and cooperative games will fill our days as students delve into a variety of
undertakings such as performing experiments, practicing sleuthing skills, cooking tasty snacks from around the
globe, studying martial arts, and playing water games. We will build models, dabble in science, go on scavenger
hunts, and discover natural beauty. Every day will be a little bit different, but we will always be involved in
activities that combine creativity, teamwork, and fun. Ashley Marshall, an elementary school science teacher, has worked over the years as a teacher,
coach, tutor, and program director. She has constantly provided opportunities for children to delve into exploration
and created outlets in which they could share their results. Ashley has a bachelor's degree in natural science and
elementary education and is taking classes towards a master's degree in science education. She is returning to
direct Curious Kids for a second summer. |
