Summer Enrichment Camps Form A Connection Between Learning and Enjoyment

Leading academic summer camp, SuperCamp, provides a safe and fun learning environment that keeps students engaged and motivated throughout the year.

There is nothing worse for a child or teen than being forced to learn information that they find useless or unimportant. How can we keep students plugged into the content they are learning, while also ensuring that they make the connection between the learned information and their own lives?

SuperCamp's summer enrichment programs are the answer! Unlike run-of-the-mill summer camps, summer enrichment programs present fundamental learning and life skills through enjoyable group settings and activities. SuperCamp’s approach to summer enrichment is that learning must be joyful, interesting and meaningful to be effective.

Imagine how much more invested a child would be in learning if the traditional method of memorizing the order of the planets was replaced with a clever story of their own creation? Intuitive mnemonic techniques are just one of the many ways SuperCamp uses to give kids and teens control of the learning process.

Summer enrichment programs like SuperCamp endeavor to give students the skills they need to excel. This is not limited to simply academics; they also learn many life skills that will assist them in school and will also help them in future social interactions and careers. SuperCamp uses realistic scenarios to help kids make the connection to learning on their own while making it worthwhile.  

Without realizing it, kids and teens will make the correlation between their school work and their futures and receive the encouragement they need to look for satisfaction in learning. They can set a precedent for their academic careers that will spill over into their future professions.

SuperCamp offers a relaxed social setting that encourages students to think outside of the box and consider all aspects of interpersonal situations with fellow peers, family members, and teachers. Everything Speaks is a key concept at SuperCamp, a reminder that regardless of what they do, they should always give it their best effort.

In addition to the many lasting connections kids and teens make at SuperCamp, they also diversify their academic skills, raise test scores and grades, increase reading speed and comprehension, become aware of their individual learning styles, enhance their capability for problem-solving and creative thinking, and gain more self-confidence and motivation as a result. Positive attitudes become an everyday occurrence when an adolescent has all of the tools to achieve their dreams and aspirations.

Every student wants to find merit in their work and every student wants to find enjoyment in learning. Summer enrichment programs give students the reins of control for learning and coax individuality out of students who may need encouragement. Academic success and personal excellence will seem effortless with the right motivation.  

SuperCamp’s summer enrichment camps have been transforming the lives of kids and teens for over 27 years. More information can be found at SuperCamp.com and by calling 800-285-3276.
