Description
During this camp, we will explore camping adventures and survival skills. We will learn how to build forts/shelters, and campfires, first aid skills, sing camp songs and become storytellers around the “fire”. We will test our own confidence and we will learn how to trust ourselves.
Project-based learning empowers students to seize control over their camp experiences, following their interests and passions.
Project-based learning frees students from the anxiety of meeting the expectations of school while allowing them the agency to create using the meaning they’ve developed from their experiences.
Students can build landscapes, create posters, perform skits, write stories, etc. In expressing their work through a medium that has meaning for them, they engage with the nature resources and material in a way they may not have otherwise.
