JOURNALING, REFLECTION, AND POETRY, Grades: rising

Session 6: July 24-28

Cost: $350 Early Bird | $375 Regular Price

4-8

Come on a journey where we will explore ideas and thoughts through nature and poetry. We will reflect, talk, wonder, discuss, question, and express our thoughts through words. We will read poems and write and share responses with each other. We will reflect back at our lives and also look to the future. All of these thoughts will be journaled as we doodle and dream together. By the end of this session, campers will go home with a beautiful journal full of personal reflections and poems all written by them in an autobiographical form.

CREATIVE WRITING CAMP, Ages 9-13

Session 8: August 7-11

Cost: $375 Early Bird | $400 Regular Price

We will bounce off published stories, poems, and pictures to create our own summery stories and poems…we will play games and do group projects and have fun with reading and writing. We will practice performing our work too, and speak with confident and entertaining voices. If there is time, we can illustrate our literary works with mixed media-wouldn’t a visual aid help you tell your story or help your poem make an impact?
