Literacy

LitShop, Where Books Meet Woodworking

There’s a new program for middle school girls in St. Louis that combines two seemingly unrelated things: literacy and hands-on building. It’s called LitShop, and the free after-school and summer program is literally a combination shop class and book club.

Helping Others Through Books N Bros

Sidney Keys III is an entrepreneur, community leader and founder of the popular reading club, Books N Bros. He’s also only 11 years old. Statistically, many African American boys stop reading between the ages of 8-12. But with the help of Eye See Me African American Children’s Bookstore, Sidney wants to change that. The club focuses on black authors, literature and history but is open to all races and backgrounds – working to build friendship and literacy together. Meetups include book discussions, games, and guest speakers. The response has been overwhelming – proving there is a deep need and desire for diverse material that allows all children to see themselves – and understand others – in the books they read.

Zugunruhe Experience: Leave the Nest, Spread Your Wings, Soar the World
The word Zugunruhe is a term derived from the German language that is best used to describe anxious behavior found within migratory birds seeking to take flight.

Zugunruhe Experience does not just offer student travel programs for some students, we offer student travel programs for every student.
