Unlock the magic of Disney from a whole new perspective! In this camp-style class, students will study Disney films! We'll look at the storytelling techniques, character development, historical influences, and cultural themes behind these beloved movies. Each week of camp, we’ll focus on a different film. What We’ll Explore Each Camp: 🎬 Storytelling & Narrative Structure – What makes Disney stories so compelling? 🌍 Historical & Cultural Context – How do these films reflect the time periods they portray (or when they were created)? 🧑🤝🧑 Character Arcs & Development – How do characters grow and evolve, and what do they teach us? 🎨 Artistic & Thematic Elements – How do music, animation, and cinematography contribute to the story? 💡 Discussion-based & Interactive! Students are encouraged to share their interpretations, debate themes, and compare different versions of the films. Upcoming Camp Themes: 📅 All May Camps – The Little Mermaid (Animated & Live-Action) 📅 All June Camps – Mulan (Animated & Live-Action) 📅 All July Camps – Beauty and the Beast (Animated & Live-Action) This class is perfect for Disney fans, budding film critics, and students interested in literature and history.

This class is designed to approach Disney movies from an academic and analytical standpoint, which may include discussions of mature themes or historical contexts associated with the films. While we will always ensure a respectful and age-appropriate environment, here are a few things to consider:
Critical Analysis:
-We may analyze elements such as historical inaccuracies, cultural representation, and underlying themes that could challenge the way some viewers traditionally see these films.
Classroom Environment:
All discussions are conducted in a respectful, inclusive manner. Diverse opinions and perspectives are welcomed and encouraged, fostering an open learning environment.
Content Warnings:
Some films may include themes of loss, violence, or historical injustices (e.g., The Hunchback of Notre Dame). We will provide movie-specific content warnings in advance so families can decide if the session is appropriate for their learner.
If you have any questions about the course content or the films being discussed, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us before enrolling!
***Class Policies (for live classes):***
1) Students are required to have working cameras and microphones in class, positioned such that we can both see and hear them clearly for the entirety of class. Classes are a much more engaging, social, and safe experience this way. Please make sure your learners are prepared to have their camera on for our live sessions!
2) Classes with fewer than the minimum number of students required may be cancelled. I do my best to let parents know the day prior that this is a possibility! Because last minute signups are common, I try not to "officially" cancel until an hour before the class begins.
3) If no students have arrived in the classroom after ten minutes, I will exit the classroom. In some courses, rescheduling is possible, but in others I may need to offer a video or handout to catch students up on the class. Refunds are generally not offered for missed classes if a video is available.
4) I absolutely understand the need to wiggle, move, and get energy out-- but if that energy becomes disruptive, rude, or combative-- like spamming the chat, making threatening or rude gestures, holding things up to the camera repeatedly, etc-- students will generally be given a warning. If the behavior continues, they will be moved back to the waiting room. If the behavior still continues, they will be removed from class and will need to watch the video for the remainder of the information. All students deserve a supportive, focused, and pleasant learning environment!
受講の前提条件
Students should be generally familiar with the selected film each month, and ideally should have watched it recently!
