EYC is excited to offer a new 6 session education course during the pre-sailing season for students ages 8-15. This program utilizes the US Sailing Reach Program curriculum (Science Technology Environment, and Math principles) along with other creative 'EYC Fun’ hands on educational activities. The curriculum combines STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) with the sport of sailing for a fun, effective authentic learning experience. STEAM challenges students to reach higher academically, reach further personally, and reach deeper into the depths of science and technology making learning relevant and fun and inspiring students to become environmental stewards and socially responsible about the world around them. The first four 2-hour sessions will use a set of lesson plans & activities completed on land which will culminate with last two 3-hour sessions on the water in J22s. First 4 hands-on classroom sessions will be 2 hrs. The final 2 hands-wet sessions will be 3 hrs with combo classroom and on-water J22 sailing. *May be able to increase class size or create another session, so Contact waterfront@eastportyc.org if interested. Course Fee: EYC Members $200, Non-Members $220 5% Discount for each sibling
