time reflecting and journaling about nature and ourselves. Over the three weeks we're
going to create scrapbooks that include our reflections, camping basics and pictures from our
trip. The cost for the trip is $25.00. (But we don't want money to be a problem; scholarships
are available). This is a great chance to learn about yourself and your world, as we// as to
have a lot of fun! Students will receive P.E. credit for this class.
4. ARISE's Butt-Busting Bicycle Bonanza!
**P.E. Credit
Students will experience physical pain like they've never experienced before. They will
be taken on a boot camp style, intensive program of physical training designed to
explore the boundaries of their endurance. Students who ride so hard they can barely
breath and feel like they're going to throw-up receive A+ grades. Anyone who has lots
of fun will also score A grades. On the way they will learn about nutrition, bicycle
maintenance, and conditioning. Students will learn how to descend steep hills without
fear at speeds approaching 40mph. We will do scenic rides outside of Oakland where
there is less traffic and more beautiful views. Determination is all that is necessary to
apply. We will provide everything else. Students will receive P.E. credit for this class.
5. Rhythm & Soul
**Art Credit/Dance Credit
Experience the rhythms in this drum and dance exploration! Understand how cultures
practice oral tradition through song, drum, and dance. Drum different styles, dance to
different beats. Express your own rhythms and create your own oral tradition. Students
will create and
perform a performance piece using story telling, improvisation, poetry, drum, and African
dance.
