How It Works

A solution for every schedule

Single sessions add variety to the day; series and week-long classes
provide consistency.

Single Sessions
Connect your Tracker (or yourself) to a new project, story or skill. Multiple classes are offered throughout the day and week.

Series
Deepen a skill, or launch an adventure, over a series of sessions.

Week-long
Week-long sessions offer a variety of activities, paired with a consistent schedule. Your Tracker will have a deeper chance to connect with peers and Guides, along with the session's theme.

Supervision Level

Efforts are made to teach without need for Guardian suppport, but note the following guidelines for guardian support.

Phone On
Guardian must be in the same home with phone on for notifications. Example: Martial Arts class.

Eyes On
Guardian must be close enough to observe, and remain ready to help. Example: Cooking class.

Week-long
Week-long sessions offer a variety of activities, paired with a consistent schedule. Your Tracker will have a deeper chance to connect with peers and Guides, along with the session's theme.

Technology as an enabler

 

Our guides have found activities, teaching topics and games they can share with Trackers remotely. The screen is used as a critical tool, but it's generally the only "tech," or even material Guides use. Any wifi connected device will work. Students will not need to type or use the mouse.

Classes for every age

Our experience leading kids learning experiences over 16 years gives us deep knowledge of the topics and teaching approaches best suited for different ages and attention spans.

Many of our guides specialize in teaching specific age groups, and their instincts for keeping a group of individuals engaged are well honed.

FAQs

Why Trackers Spark?
  • Trackers Spark camps are live, small group interactive webinars.
  • Our staff brings one-of-a-kind skills and expertise.
  • Each of our staff working with kids are background checked, trained and approved Trackers Teachers and Guides.
How long are camps?

Most camps are 1-3 hours. All programs are Pacific Time (PT).

They can be a single day or weekly series.

Since our Trackers Teachers and Guides are online and your kids are at home, different programs ask different levels of guardian supervision.

How do I join my camp?

During the camps:


We will engage and delight your child while they are in the virtual classroom with us. Depending on the class, we may need your assistance at several key points:

  • To remind your child to return to the virtual classroom if they wander off
  • To supervise your child while they do an activity off-screen in your pre-determined spot
  • To assist with or supervise a key element of the class that needs adult support

We will text you when your assistance is required, so please make sure that your phone number is correct in your student profile and that you have your phone with you for the duration of the class period.

Please note that our sessions may be recorded for staff training and quality purposes, but the recordings will not be shared outside of Trackers.
