This writer's workshop summer camp is all about creative writing, active play, and connection with nature. Children will spend time each day in games, observation, and play outside in the beautiful, forested Mt. Tabor park. During the writer's workshop, elements of creative writing will be taught, and students will have the freedom to write whatever they choose. This camp is a great fit for students who already love to write and for those who need more practice, support, and/or motivation. |

Reading and Play Summer Camps
Get Hooked on a Book! Listen, Read, and Play
This reading camp is designed to inspire your child's summer reading by reading aloud the first book in a popular, well-loved book series. Students will listen to the book being read aloud, will partner read parts of the book, and will silent read. Your child will practice reading skills, comprehension strategies, and will leave inspired to keep reading all summer long. This camp is a great fit for students who love to read, as well as for students who are close-to-meeting in reading or who are slightly resistant to reading, but are open if it's fun. This camp is an opportunity for students to receive small group and individual instruction that will inspire each child's joy of reading and encourage further reading all summer long. |
