Camp Turtle Creek Programs Little Chefs Board our red eye and take flight to a different part of the globe each day. This week we will stamp our passports and explore various cultures from around the world. Our little chefs will certainly enjoy mapping their way to each destination, learning fun facts during their travels and cooking the tasty varieties of traditional foods served. Cooking offers abundant lessons in basic chemistry— discovering how certain ingredients combine, react, and change as they cook —as well as math, since ingredient lists are composed of amounts and fractions. Our head chef will engage the students in conversation and teach them about good nutrition while serving up the great varieties. Art and Artisans Our young artists will spend the week exploring the art of five artists and recreating their styles: the action painting of Jackson Pollack, the still life through simple geometric shapes of Cezanne, the boldness of color, shapes and lines of Matisse, the collages of Picasso and the outdoor landscapes of Monet. In the afternoon, students will further explore a variety of art media through sculpture, photography, printing, drawing and painting. If your children love art, this is the perfect camp week for them!
Camp Turtle Creek Programs Get Movin’ This fun filled, fast-paced week will include a variety of sports and activities for children. The week’s activities encompass: Children’s Yoga, Tae Kwon Do, Hip Hop Dance, Boot Camp Exercises, and Organized Team Games. Of course, we will go to the YMCA to end our week with swimming lessons. Besides the skills learned through these activities and games, children will learn about sportsmanship and how to be a good teammate. Under the Sea This week there will be a lot of commotion in the ocean! Children will explore the ocean to develop readiness skills and curiosity about ocean life. Literature, such as Rainbow Fish and Commotion in the Ocean, will be read to expand knowledge and concept about ocean dwelling animals. Children will make fishing poles to fish for letters and numbers. Music, movement, arts and crafts and dramatic play will be an integral part of this fun filled week. Arts and Crafts: Children will spend the week exploring a variety of art materials in order to create beautiful art. Some art projects will require children to follow directions; other projects will be creative and unique expressions. These projects will encourage fine motor development as children manipulate materials. Stories about art (i.e. The Dot) will be read to help students further understand the creation of art. Their artistic creations will be hung “gallery-style” around the classroom to be enjoyed by all.
