Ethan had a lot of fun joining the AIW camp the last two weeks. Your team has done an amazing job keeping him engaged and he was very excited to join the online camp every morning!

This is online CAMP, not an online course!

We offer summer sessions for grades 1-8, with a 1st-grade program for “rising 1st graders “ (current Kinders), an elementary program for rising 2nd through 5th graders, and a middle school program for campers entering grades 6-8.

Your child will spend part of the day in an “all campers” environment, part in a grade-level group (“troop”), and part in a small group of friends (“cabin”) setting. Campers will also receive scheduled 1-1 time in the afternoon with teachers to get 1-1 guidance on their projects.

Instruction is done through music, online games, videos, and technology. Campers engage in learning activities that give them positive, confidence-building experiences with writing. Emphasis is placed on connecting and sharing ideas and laughter with their instructors and camp “cabin-mates.”

When I signed my son up I wasn’t sure how he would do in a writing camp (having a buddy in the group has definitely helped), but I think the AIW approach with high energy, fun, and relevance to the kids‘ interests is perfect to kindle interest in writing even for reluctant writers. I also think the one on one coaching sessions are extremely helpful for personalized feedback, and for the kids to feel like each of their voices is heard. Thank you for all the support and mentoring that you provide.

2-Week Summer Online Programs

Session 1: 06/03-06/14 | Session 2: 07/15-07/26 | Session 3: 07/29-08/09

AIW Camp Online is two-weeks long, Monday through Friday, and is offered as a “Half-Day Plus” program. AIW Camp Online has a 1st-grade program, an elementary program (broken out by grade level), and a middle school program. A camper’s grade is the grade they will enter at the end of the summer.

Campers will be grouped in “cabins” (~7 campers), and may sign-up to be in a cabin with friends… allowing them to be social while still “socially distant.” We will ask campers to work from a tablet, laptop, or Chromebook and have at least two different physical spaces that they can move between during the camp day to simulate rotating between lessons & activities. Our staff is comprised of credentialed teachers and they are supported by college counselors, typically English and theater majors, who are on their way to becoming teachers themselves.

Half-Day (9AM-12PM PST)

Thank you so much for putting together this awesome camp – Jai has the best time and seems to have learned a few things about books and possibly quite inspired to write! We really appreciate the format and the counselors particularly – they brought the right energy, inspiration, and kept things stimulating.
