Creating Characters
For our 4th-6th grade campers, Creating Characters will build upon the story arc as they delve into writing multiple short stories with different writing techniques. To help bring these tales to life, students will take part in creative storytelling activities to get outside and get moving!
We also explore powerful literature to inspire our own creations. Authors' writing will come alive with lessons on plot, archetypes, dialogue, setting, and much more. Authors will experience the entire writing process repeatedly through a variety of perspectives and medium, including writing their own original poetry.
At the end of the week, authors will chose their favorite piece to be published in a class book. This book will be mailed home to families after camp has concluded.
Include all camp materials and curriculum, a camper t-shirt your first week, a healthy lunch everyday provided through School Foodies, and all the high fives you want.
