My daughter is in 7th grade at MBMS & I am an Oconee
graduate and am hoping you could help me promote a summer camp I will be
leading in conjunction with the GA Center.
I am gearing it to adolescents 13-15 years old and want to
develop leadership skills while also exposing them to basic child development
concepts kids this age are interested in.
They will be learning sensory activities like making
play-doh & gloop and how that helps a child's motor skills and brain
development.
Then they'll have the opportunity to take those fun things
they've made into the 3/4yr old classrooms at the CDL and guide the children
with open-ended questions and play.
They'll also have the chance to begin the volunteer training
program for teenagers at Sandy Creek Nature Center to assist on trail hikes and
children's activities.
I think the students in the Education & Training Career
Cluster would find this camp an extension to what they are learning in class.
I'm attaching the link that lists other activities/field
trips I'm planning for the week.
Since middle school doesn't send home Friday folders,
I don't know how to get the word out to students and their parents.
