YMCA
The YMCA is getting ready for another year of after
school/day camp and is looking to get some
Kinesiology students involved. In the past they
have had Kinesiology students work with them as
interns--helping to align their after-school
recreational activities with the Louisiana Standards
for Physical Education. This year they would like
to update and complete that process if any KINS
students are interested in interning with them.
Interested students would be designing physical
activities for school-aged children, facilitating
play experiences with the children, and identifying
how all the related movement activities helps the
children develop according to the Physical Education
standards.
Interested students can also work in the
after-school program as a part-time job.
If
this sounds interesting to you, please contact:
