READING:

READ!     READ!     READ!
This year team members will have the opportunity to participate in an in-depth study of a particular author's works and styles. Each day a new author will be introduced and looked at in great detail. Team members will take a closer look at the author's life, style, motivations, and place in literary history through fun, exciting projects.

WRITING:

CREATE A NEWSPAPER

Team members will get their wheels rolling as they work together to plan, write, and publish a newspaper using the writing process: Pre-writing, Drafting, Revising, Editing, and Publishing. The newspaper will include: News, Sports and Feature Writing, Interviews, Editorials, Movie Reviews, Advice Columns, Surveys, Recipes, Puzzles and Games, and more! The newspaper will be distributed to families on the last day of camp.

DRAMA & ART:

The drama and art program will provide students with the opportunity to express themselves in a variety of ways. *Team members will participate in drama and art activities such as theatre games, improvisations, face painting, and mask making. Through role-playing, they will learn problem solving, critical thinking, and teamwork. They will also gain an appreciation for the history and practice of theatre as an art form.

KIDS IN MOTION:

Your kids will stay fit, build character and most of all, HAVE FUN! They*ll participate in activities that are designed to motivate them to live healthy lifestyles in a high-energy, positive environment. *Tour de F.R.A. campers will enjoy a different theme each day. Activities include: soccer, basketball, obstacle courses, rope climbing, rock climbing, endurance training, and more! On Friday, our campers will have a blast as they compete in athletic competitions where prizes will be awarded!
