The Project-Based Learning Series led by Kate Scasso (M.Ed., CYT, TIC, RP) offers an immersive, hands-on summer experience at Maplewood Outside School for incoming 1st–3rd graders. This series is designed to ignite a lifelong love of learning through high-engagement, weekly thematic units that blend academic skills with creative expression. Each day follows a mindful and structured flow, moving from a warm greeting and read-aloud into movement, content-specific vocabulary, and geography, followed by snacks, independent reading, and dedicated time for art creation and writing.

It will run Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm. Join us for any or all weeks!

Week 1 (July 6th-10th): Folktale Friends - Reading, Geography, Creation, Writing
Week 2 (July 13th-17th): The Shape Shop - Geometry Exploration
Week 3 (July 20th-24th): Think Globally, Act Locally - Learn about the importance of activism in our community
