Disney Youth Education Series (Y.E.S.)
Disney Youth Education Series provides a one of kind educational experience for K-12 student groups of 10 or more. More than 20 curriculum-based, academic journeys examine and explore the scientific, cultural, creative, and natural exhibits of the Walt Disney World Theme Parks. Specially trained Walt Disney World Resort facilitators use a captivating mixture of thought-provoking information, hands-on experiences, and fun to involve students in the learning process. The grade-level content and specially designed pre- and post-program materials make it easy for educators to incorporate Disney Y.E.S. programs into classroom lesson plans. Take a look at a few of the program descriptions below for Arts & Humanities, Life Management, Natural Sciences, and Physical Sciences.

Student Experience
Today I got to experience what it is like to attend a Y.E.S. program at Walt Disney World. The Y.E.S. program that I attended is called Disney’s Captivating Moments; image with impact held in EPCOT. There was a group of about eighteen students all together and there were two instructors who were there to assist us, they taught us some cool stuff about photography that I will now take into consideration when I am taking any picture! With the techniques we got to learn we were able to use them through out the park, some things we learned were: side lighting, reaction shot, rule of thirds, and many others. Not only did we learn some techniques but they also had activities for us to do Once we took a few pictures on our way to our next destination, Than like we were photo journalists, we would stand in a circle and share the picture and they had us walk around and make up a random story, showing us that a picture could mean anything to anyone and that is why you should always add a caption or tell someone your story! All in all I had an amazing time and learned so much new stuff that I did not know about photography, and I am looking forward to attending my next Y.E.S. program!
