Destination ImagiNation

What is Destination ImagiNation?...

Destination ImagiNation is a creative problem solving program for participants from elementary through college levels.

The Destination ImagiNation Program provides a fresh and exciting offering of Team Challenges and Instant Challenges each academic year. Five competitive Team Challenges and one non-competitive Rising Stars!

Below is a copy of an information form that was sent home this week that you should sign if you wish to allow your child permission to sign up to be on a DI team.

2007-2008

               Again this year Golden Brook School will be providing an opportunity for students in GRADE 2 to participate in the Destination ImagiNation Program. This is an after school program designed to foster creative problem solving and critical thinking skills in students. At Golden Brook the teams will be participating in the Primary noncompetitive Level.

               Prior to the parent informational meeting at Windham Center School on Wednesday – October 3^rd at 7pm, students will be given an explanation of the program, the time commitment involved, as well as the responsibilities of being a “team member.” This will be followed by a sign-up sheet which will be posted in each classroom. Students will have one week to make their decision about joining the program. The following week, children will receive an assignment to be done at home and returned on a given date. This activity checks the task commitment of those potential team members.

               The program is a wonderful opportunity for the growth and development of students at any age. In order for the program to become a reality, we need the help of parents who would be willing to serve as Team Managers. Golden Brook DI volunteer Team Manager meeting - to be announced.

Thanks so very much for your interest. Should you have any questions, please feel free to call me.
