As a student-centered educational institution, <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>International</strong> <strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Belgrade</strong> (ISB) takes pride<br />
in <strong>the</strong> fact that meeting each student's educational<br />
needs is <strong>the</strong> primary concern <strong>of</strong> not only <strong>the</strong><br />
Faculty and Administration, but <strong>of</strong> every ISB staff<br />
member. Through differentiated instruction, guest<br />
speaker visits, fieldtrips, and various<br />
extracurricular activities, students are immersed in<br />
numerous opportunities to learn in and out <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
classroom.<br />
The ISB <strong>Summer</strong> <strong>Camp</strong> program strives to meet<br />
<strong>the</strong> needs <strong>of</strong> all campers, providing opportunities<br />
to learn while playing through a range <strong>of</strong> outdoor<br />
and indoor activities that promote various PYP<br />
attitudes: appreciation, confidence, cooperation,<br />
creativity, curiosity, respect, and tolerance. The<br />
ISB <strong>Summer</strong> <strong>Camp</strong> is open to students <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
international and independent school<br />
communities, and is beneficial to <strong>the</strong> newest<br />
members <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> ISB community. The camp allows<br />
students to interact socially with <strong>the</strong>ir future<br />
classmates during <strong>the</strong> summer and provides<br />
additional support for English as Additional<br />
Language learners, who will benefit from <strong>the</strong> social<br />
interactions in English and start <strong>the</strong> new school<br />
year with greater confidence.
The Program Objective:<br />
The objective <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> ISB <strong>Summer</strong> <strong>Camp</strong> is to give<br />
campers an opportunity to be active and creative,<br />
and learn and play outside <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> academic<br />
boundaries <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> school year in a safe community<br />
environment. At <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> four week program,<br />
students will come away with new skills,<br />
experiences, and friendships. In order to ensure<br />
that this objective is met, an assortment <strong>of</strong> outdoor<br />
and indoor activities, that foster creativity and <strong>the</strong><br />
development <strong>of</strong> various skills, will be provided.
The Program Description:<br />
Apart from participating in various on-campus<br />
activities (gardening, natural science<br />
experiments, sports, computer and arts and<br />
crafts activities), campers will enjoy special guest<br />
visits (clown visit, dancing lessons) and will have<br />
an opportunity to work on collective projects.<br />
