Entering grades 3rd – 6th for the 2026/2027 school year
CREATIVE WRITING CAMP
Is there a budding author inside of your child? Are they creative thinkers, but need someone to help them organize their thoughts and put it down on paper?
We will focus on developing characters, creating structured stories with an exciting opening, thoughtful middle and conclusion which brings all of the pieces together. We will introduce your child to techniques for creating characters and drawing storyboards to plan out their story and work with them 1:1 to edit their writing.
The goal of the class will be to produce a story in a creative book!
Students will need a chromebook or laptop computer for this class.
Students should bring a spiral notebook and pencil.
MATH MANIA CAMP
Looking for a fun and creative way to have your child practice his/her math facts? Students will learn to play some simple, but creative math games, such as “Math Baseball”, “Solar System Math” and “Closest to One”.
Students will take home games to share with family and friends. In addition to working on basic facts, we will also play some logic puzzles, tangram puzzlers and creative problem-solving activities.
