Homeschool Classes
The goal of NSNP’s homeschool programs is to instill a love of nature in our students while also facilitating positive social interactions within the group. Our homeschool class routine is as follows: warm up with a group game, eat a quick snack, spend about 1-1.5 hours on focused exploration connected to the day’s theme followed by 30 minutes of free play/exploration. During this final half hour, students can practice specific wilderness skills, participate in group activities and games, or engage in individual exploration.
Listed homeschool classes are based at Camp Denison.
Morning Homeschool Session
Mondays: September 9 – November 4 (8 weeks, no class on 10/14 or 11/11)
10am – 12pm
Ages: 6-10
Fee: $250
Each morning, the class will have a specific, seasonal nature-based focus. After learning about their target skill or species, the class will embark on an exploration of the trails that make up Camp Denison to learn more. The vast majority of this class is hands-on and inquiry driven. We allow our students the freedom to explore, to investigate individually or collaboratively, and encourage them to question our highly knowledgeable staff! We also leave time for games and some open exploration.
