By using a variety of methods, students develop comprehension and language skills that will encourage them to respond to the demands of social and academic life.

I never went to summer camp as a child. I grew up in Zimbabwe, where we had three school terms, spaced out by month long school-holidays. In short, I spent all my summers sweating away in a classroom. Parents; don't let that happen to your children! The perfect solution for a three month school-holiday in the new decade of a fresh millennium, (unlike the twentieth century when I grew up) is Summer Camp 2010 at AtlantaInternationalSchool. Our week long, non-stop-excitement-every-minute adventures will brighten any child's summer. In case you are still in any doubt, may I present:
The Top Ten Reasons to Attend AIS Summer Camp 2010.
10. Kaleidoscope Day Camp's Escape to AfricaCamp
Quite literally, escape to Africa, with me, Miss Charity! I'll pack you in my suitcase and we'll go on safari, hunt for lions in the bush, learn some killer dance moves, and eat the kinds of foods Anthony Bourdain only dreams of!
9. Tae Kwon Do Camp with Master Pius Martial Arts
This exciting Korean martial art is offered for two action packed weeks with a Master instructor. Parents be warned—the Tae Kwon Do camper that comes home every night will have amazing ninja skills!
8. CampStardust
If you become a SUPERSTAR with us at CampStardust, you'll probably donate your television to another family—an unfortunate family without a talented and entertaining performer in their home.
7. Video Programming and Lego Robotics Camp
Boring does not compute! A week of video programming AND a week of Lego robotics? Need I say more?
6. Kaleidoscope Day Camp So You Think You Can Cook?
Parents often dream of the day when their children will whip up gourmet, nutritionally balanced, beautifully plated meals. Unless your kiddies come cook with us, parents, your dreams may never come true!
5. Multicultural Checkmate (Chess Camp)
Where else can your children shout “check mate!” over a giant chess set AND play against International Chess Master Carolina Blanco?
4. Peace and quiet around the house
The amount of peace and quiet is exponential to the number of weeks your child attends camp.
3. Summer Language Camp
Bienvenue! Willkommen! Bienvendio! Huān Yíng! Come and learn with us and improve your choice of French, German, Spanish or Chinese. Also offered is English as a Second Language Camp, which builds confidence in bilingual children. International fun included at no extra charge.
2. Drop off is free!
That's right; not only can you drop off your children at 8 am for no extra charge, but we feed them healthy, delicious snacks and lunches too.
1. Sports! AIS and FutureStarsSoccerAcademy's Soccer Camp, and AIS Champ Basketball Camp, and Serve! Pass! Set! Attack! Block! Dig! AIS Volleyball Camp
If you aren't lucky enough to go to FIFA World Cup Football 2010 in South Africa this summer, our soccer camp is the next best thing. I can't guarantee that Italy will win again, (GO ITALIA!) but I do know our future soccer stars are all winners. Oh, and there's Basketball and Volleyball camp too. I'm told these sports are also fun.
