Each day after school FunSportZone provides its students with homework assistance, a cognitively based enrichment activity (i.e. science club, math club, literacy activity), a fun recreation activity of their choosing (i.e., dance, sports, art, cooking), and a nutritious snack.
In addition to daily core activities, FunSportZone has several enhanced programs available to students including:
ASAP (After School Arts Program)
ASAP includes visual art, music, dance, drama and poetry classes, and features artists/educators—in—residence working with the FunSportZone children. Each 10—week residency concludes with a special culmination event which brings together students, families and community members to celebrate the talent and accomplishments of the children.
FunSport
FunSportZone provides fun and innovative opportunities for FunSport children and their families to increase their physical activity, encourages healthy habits including drinking more water and making healthy eating choices, and teaches kids and parents to understand and monitor food labels.
Celebrate Science Program
The FunSportZone Celebrate Science Program provides opportunities for FunSportZone children to have fun, engaging and interactive science experiences under a "team inquiry" model — developed under the guidance of NASA / Jet Propulsion Laboratory — which closely mirrors the real world in which scientists work and provides children with a true collaborative experience. This program culminates with the Citywide Celebrate Science Fair where winning teams are awarded all—expense—paid trips to a parent—child weekend at U.S. Space Camp in Huntsville, AL.
KidzLit
KidzLit, a research—based literacy program developed specifically for use in after school programs by the Developmental Studies Center (Oakland, CA), helps FunSportZone foster a love of reading in its students by centering a range of activities on a collection of 120 books and companion guides carefully selected because children come alive when they read or hear them read aloud.
KidType
KidType is a five-week program that teaches fourth- and fifth-grade students the basics of touch-typing through fun and interactive games and lessons. The program concludes with a ceremony at which students receive a free, used computer to take home and share with their families.
From educational trips to performing arts and music events, from community celebrations to recreational outings, FunSportZone students are provided with countless opportunities to explore their communities and beyond which helps to broaden their realm of experiences within and outside of their own cultures.
