The Maker Sessions students participated in included...
- Assembling a dreidel and playing the dreidel game
- Creating a holiday themed card
- Decorating a gingerbread house
- Designing a trap to catch Santa
- Following a recipe to make snow
- Using CoSpace to make a Winter scene
- Sewing a holiday craft
- Building ornaments
We finished the day with...
- Reflections on Seesaw sharing our favorite activities and how they helped us become more of a Maker
Updates / Reminders
**UPDATES AND REMINDERS**
- We post pictures to Seesaw throughout the camp day. Don't forget to join our class and check them out!
- Send a refillable water bottle with your child - we have filtered bottle refill stations on campus.
- We are doing Tye Dye on Thursday and will need your student to please bring a plain white shirt for us to use!
- Friday afternoon is the student-directed conference time for your child to share with you all that he or she has learned this week. Please plan to be here about 2:15 pm so your child can share with you.
- Lunch Friday will be in the Commons. It is a favorite of our campers so no need to pack a lunch on Friday. You just need to send a snack.
- If you stay late for aftercare, please bring extra snacks.
