Looking for a summer camp for your child?

Here are some questions you might want to ask about:

Academics:

If your child has a Learning disability (LD) or needs academic instruction.
 

1. Do they have 1:1 tutoring using high quality, proven programs (e.g. Orton Gillingham, Wilson Reading Fundations™, Project Read©/Language Circle©, Lindamood-Bell™, The Fast ForWord Family of Programs™ ) at least one period 45 minute session a day, by trained teachers?
2. Do they group by ability?
3. Do they measure process?  Do they do test at the beginning and at the end of the program?
4. Do they provide the parents with written feedback at the end of the academic program to pass on to the teacher in September?

Format:

1. What is the teacher: student ratio , I look for 1:6, or 1:8 (not counting the helpers).  Are there additional helpers?
2. What is the level of experience of the camp counselors?  Do they train their counselors and helpers?   (How do they handle social and behavioral issues?),
3. Are students grouped by age (i.e. all 5th graders are together)?  Is there flexibility?
4. What information do they ask for on application forms (Most difficult time, what is the best way to handle your child, what does and doesn't work for my child, etc.)?
5. Do they foster team building vs. competition?
6. Can parents communicate with the counselors at beginning or end of day, if necessary?
7. What kinds of activities are there throughout the day?  Do they mix physical activities, arts and craft as well as mental challenges?
8. Does the student get to make choices about which activities they participate in?

 

Each of these camps comes recommended by at least three SPED PAC members, we cannot in any way guarantee your will have a positive experience.  It is important to check the camp brochures, references, review the tutor credentials, and interview them to understand whether their format is a good fit for your child.
