A Typical Day at Camp

At American Village Camps, everything we do is done to promote the integration of the English language. Each day, we put into place activities for all learning styles (Auditory, Visual, Read/Write, and Kinaesthetic).  

The organization of each day follows a standardized schedule that we call A Typical Day. This allows information to flow. 

• English classes provide vocabulary and grammar for the activities of the day. They also allow for the counselors to follow a camper's progress, through more structured classroom work.

• Activities allow for the application of learned vocabulary, present cultural notions in a fun way, as well as reaching other developmental goals - teamwork, personal development, physical activity, outdoor time and overall well-being.

This organization, conducted in immersion, assists and reinforces learning. The student hears and uses words repeatedly throughout the day.
