Team Awesome Give Me More!!

What we did today
(& what we’ll do tomorow)
SCIENCE: Today we had a lot of fun building and launching paper airplanes. But these were special planes, because they helped us learn about gliding animals that live in the treetops of the rainforest. We made special modifications that helped us learn what makes a successful glider! These special lizards and lemurs have wide flaps of skin that help them sail from tree to tree Tomorrow we are going to dissect something fun!

ART: Today our paper mache birds finally take flight as we put the finishing touches on the body on and wings! Some of us who finished up early even had a chance to make a mask as well.
Tomorrow we’ll create an animal out of a kitchen tool. REMINDER: Don’t forget to bring a weirdly shaped kitchen utensil tomorrow!


RECREATION: Due to the fires we stayed inside for rec today. We played animal Simon says, team games, steal the bacon, and finished with animal face painting


Notes from the Director
Amazing camp spirit today! I loved all the fun animal costumes—your spirit really helped make the day extra special for the campers and staff! Due to the many fires burning, we tried to keep activities inside today. We know some campers really missed their out door time but safety first. Hopefully the air will be a bit better tomorrow. Goodnight, and see you tomorrow! SaraJ

Parent Surveys: Look out for the Parent Survey coming home with your camper today! Please please pretty please take a few minutes with your child tonight to fill it out. Your comments and suggestions are gifts that help us improve and get better every week. We love to hear what kids say at home so please include quotes whenever possible.
