We've Got Game!
Join us while the weather is still relatively moderate to learn all about
plants! We will hoe, plant, sprout, water, and beautify a garden plot at
MMS, and also grow potted plants to take home and nurture. Each day will
include a craft, working outside (weather permitting), and a lesson about
the life cycle of plants. Be prepared to get dirty!
We will "visit" a different country every day in this camp for rising 1st
through rising 3rd graders. Each day we will learn about the culture from
different countries, and make a craft, have a snack, and play a game from
that country. Join us for a trip Around the World in Five Days!
Engage your mind and stretch your horizons through hands-on, lab-based
science activities. We will use inquiry-based learning techniques,
constructed by true scientists, to discover the world around us. But don't
worry, parents, it will be safe for the little ones!
Bring out your inner artist! Students will learn several different art and
crafts in this camp, including painting, collage, sculpture, and clay, to name
rd
a few. NO CAMP ON FRIDAY, JULY 3 !
Let's get cookin'! Rising 1st through 3rd graders will learn how to make
and cook a variety of dishes. Some will be cooked in the oven or on the
stove, and some will be a no bake recipe. Then comes the fun part - we
get to taste our creations! We will also make a craft in this camp, too.
This week will be all about animals! We'll learn about animals from
different countries, do animal crafts, and even dress up like an animal!
Come walk on the wild side!
Games, games, games! Come play with us as we explore board games,
outdoor games, video games, and educational games. Some games will
be played on teams, some individually, and some will be head to head. So
come on - We've Got Game!

Splash Day: Every Friday is Splash day. The children may wear their swim suit to school or may bring their
