Project Adventure Education Programs - These activities facilitate personal and interpersonal growth (communication, problem-solving, trust-building, risk-taking, and cooperation). They are excellent choices for sports and work teams, peer counseling groups, at-risk students, teacher in-services, and all groups seeking a strong cooperative experience.
Teambuilding Activities are instrumental in the practice of SEDL skills (social, emotional, development and learning) and help to meet district goals for addressing the Dignity Act and 21st Century skills.
New Games, Initiatives and Low Elements: Groups move through a series of hands-on activities designed to develop communication, cooperation, trust, and problem-solving skills in an atmosphere of safety, respect, and fun. Participants are guided in making connections between these activities and "real-life" situations. Teachers report a positive impact on classroom climate, student performance, and interpersonal dynamics when these activities are reinforced in the classroom.
