FOR AGES 6-12. Register above for all 5 weeks! Help guide a storybook styled adventure where everything is… PAPER?! Kids read parts of the story and vote on what our Paper Mario and companions should do next while learning about story elements like heroes, themes, and plot. This program is designed to boost children’s reading fluency and comprehension skills, teach how stories are built, & help children practice teamwork and decision-making.     More about Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door:I’m going to tell you the story of the Thousand-Year Door. An awfully long time ago in a strange and far-off land, a big bustling town thrived. It was a town where all people lived very happy lives and it was said that the town was very prosperous… But one day… A great cataclysm struck the town and its people. Darkness filled the skies, and the earth roared and shook. It was as if the very world had come to a violent end and in but a single night… the town sank into the depths of the earth. Many moons rose and set… Stories of the town passed into the pages of fairy tales and when the town’s site no longer held relics of the past, people gathered at that spot and built a new town, Rogueport. But word soon spread among the people who moved in… that an ancient city lay deep underground and that a magnificent treasure rested there. This is the tale of the quest for the legendary treasure of Rogueport and of the Thousand-Year Door…     More about Game Explorers:Game Explorers is all about showcasing how video games can provide value to a child’s life by using them as tools to explore storytelling techniques and in turn bolstering their reading, writing, and listening skills. Rather than have children staring blankly at a screen, Game Explorers has them engaging with the text, making decisive decisions as a team, answering questions, and following instructions. Children do not have direct control of the game, instead they work together as a team to help navigate the instructor. The gameplay is interrupted by discussion of the characters, setting, and themes of the story. This program is best for Children who can MOSTLY read independently. The group will work together to help sound out long or difficult words. Children should be made aware that they will NOT be actively holding the controller at all times.
