Palm Academy Camps

Best Enrichment Camps for Kids

At Palm Academy, we are passionate about teaching preschool and early elementary school-aged children, ages 3 through 8 years old. We teach and encourage our students to use creativity, communication, confidence, critical thinking, and collaboration skills. By utilizing fun and interactive activities, we can help strengthen our students’ skills and self-confidence. 

Using the Palm Academy Learning Station, our elementary tutors and teachers encourage children to explore 12 different subjects. These range from the traditional topics such as biology, astronomy, and art, as well as subjects not usually covered in early learning, like economics, technology, life lessons, and goals.

Kids Core Curriculum

Toddler Classroom | Tots

At Palm Academy, our toddler classroom helps introduce your excited little tots to a new classroom experience. If you’re looking for daycare near Fremont that allows your little ones to be introduced to the classroom and school environment, check out our Palm Academy Toddler Classroom. Designed for the shorter attention spans of these early learners, our tot’s program uses engaging lessons that involve songs, movement, and hands-on activities. We encourage basic social, leadership, and teamwork skills by allowing our tots to learn to interact with other students, teacher assistants, and teachers in the classroom. 

Our children and tots can develop and use newly found communication skills, as well as develop their confidence and self-esteem through classroom discussions, role-plays, and activities. At Palm Academy, our progress reports allow teachers to easily share written results with parents and separate our Kids Core Curriculum from other early education programs.

Making Music

Making Music

What would the world be without music? In Music class, our 2 to 4-year-olds get to move, sing, pretend, and share their love for music. As children engage in our music program, they improve their memory, cognitive development, learning skills, and their ability to express emotion. Music is one of the only ways to utilize both hemispheres of our brains, which is why we are passionate about implementing our music classes into our curriculum. This music program is a fun and energetic way to introduce children to the creative world of music. Through the award-winning ABC Music & Me™ curriculum, children learn musical terms such as forte (loud), piano (quiet), and many more. Children also learn group social behaviors such as taking turns, cooperation, and listening. Our students are encouraged to explore the different instruments, which increases auditory discrimination while providing a foundation for future musical interests. Optional monthly parent kits are also available so that children can continue the fun while at home with family.

Our advanced music program for 4 to 6-year-olds is based on the same concepts as the 2 to 4-year-old music program. However, this music curriculum is focused on preparing our older children for formal music lessons while still implementing a fun and positive experience. Our students are introduced to various composers, songs, and musical styles such as Classical and Jazz. We also include learning notation, new instruments and musical vocabulary. Our teachers introduce our children to instruments such as the keyboard while also learning basic and fundamental techniques. These music classes and lessons provide a solid foundation for musical education as well as a lifelong appreciation of music and movement.

Baby Singing

As a parent, you have probably wondered what your infant or toddler is thinking? What are they absorbing? What are they trying to communicate? At Palm Academy, our Baby Singing Program is designed specifically for our infants and toddlers between the ages of 6 months and 2 years old. These children will eventually develop the capacity to communicate verbally, however, until they do, our Baby Singing Program can be incredibly helpful. Although this program is designed specifically for children; every parent knows their child can communicate before he or she is actually able to speak. This is proven in Baby Sign Language and Baby Singing. Both forms of this early communication can significantly reduce tantrums. This also allows our parents, caregivers, and families peace of mind knowing they can provide their child(ren) with exactly what they are needing at that time.

In this Baby Singing Program, our parents, caregivers, and babies are taught how to communicate through gestures, even before the child can speak! Research shows that children who learn how to communicate through gestures or singing begin to speak with a larger vocabulary. Not only will your infant or toddler be practicing and using communication early on, but they are also using both hemispheres of their actively growing brains. Stimulate their communication, growth, and learning in a fun and creative way with our Baby Singing Program.

Initial Assessment

Initial Assessment

When you enroll at Palm Academy, your child’s Initial Assessment will take place when they first enter our program or when they advance to the next grade level. The goal of our Initial Assessment is to provide our Palm Academy PALS director and instructors with an accurate overview of your child(ren)’s academic strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement. This gives our director and instructors a complete insight into our student’s education and learning styles. By taking this individualized approach, we can help each child succeed and reach their fullest potential. 

At Palm Academy, our PALS-trained teaching staff and tutors will craft a personalized curriculum for your child(ren) based on their knowledge level, learning style, and learning gaps, which are based on their Initial Assessment. Every PALS curriculum features a step-by-step, scaffolded learning curriculum that is focused on a conceptual understanding. This initial assessment is what allows us to curate the curriculum needed to help your child(ren) succeed!

Interim Assessments

Interim Assessments

When enrolled and attending Palm Academy, your child(ren) will be given an Interim Assessment every four or five weeks. This Interim Assessment ensures that our students have retained the skills that they have learned from the previous month’s curriculum and help keep parents alert to their child’s progress. If an Interim Assessment determines that a student has not retained certain concepts, our tutors and teachers will then go over these knowledge areas in new ways until they have grasped them fully. This allows every student to grow and learn at their own pace — an opportunity that children don’t have during regular school hours.

At Palm Academy, our interim assessments are what can help your child(ren) prevail. By receiving a truly curated and personalized approach to learning, your child(ren) will learn to reach their full potential and utilize the techniques best for their learning style. This gives them the tools and confidence needed to succeed in education and life.
