Our young explorers take on the role of Entomologists! As true scientists, they come together to explore the world of insects with immersive scenarios, inspired by real-world challenges and questions such as: 🔍 What would you do if you stumbled upon a rare, potentially life-saving caterpillar in the depths of Brazil? Do you kill it, or let it live and risk your own health? 🔍 Do you think insects are scary, or beautiful? Interesting, or boring? What makes them so? 🔍 Are insects an important part of life? Why do you think so? Why not? Which insect are you most afraid of? Join us as we spark curiosity, critical thinking, and a deeper appreciation for the tiny creatures that inhabit our world! 🦋 #entomology #entomologists #scientists #learning #handsonlearning #thematiclearning #realworldchallenges #actonacademy #siouxfalls

Learning begins at home. No learning environment can fully replace the influence of involved parenting. It's a partnership between home and school that shapes a child's learning journey. #learning #education #learningenvironment #school #parenting #parents #homelearning #parenthood #schoolchoice #actonacademysiouxfalls

We offer a unique opportunity for children to thrive through freedom, exploration, and hands-on learning. Camp Curiosity is the perfect platform for your young learners to test their ideas, embrace failure, think critically, collaborate with others and learn from their experiences. The campers are the architects of their own playtime which makes this experience truly learner-driven.

All children have the potential to be great problem solvers! ‼️ This potential is nurtured through interactions with adults who pose thought-provoking questions, fostering independence rather than spoon-feeding information.
