Weather Camp 2017

******* WEATHER CAMP IS FULL FOR 2017 *******

Weather Camp will be held June 26th-30th.
The cost of this year's camp is $35 per student.

This summer we will study the wild, wonderful world of weather! Each day of camp will be themed as a different season. Monday will be Spring, and we'll learn about the water cycle and rain. Tuesday will be summer, and we'll discover interesting facts about heat and why we often have thunderstorms in the summer. On Wednesday, Fall day, we will learn about wind and how it changes our weather. Winter day will be on Thursday and we will learn all about snow and ice. Friday will be our culminating day where we will review and celebrate all that we have learned!

All students that participate in this year's camp will get to keep several small instruments that will help them set-up their own weather station at home.

Feel free to email me with any questions! See you in June!

Testimonials

"Thank you!...My daughter really LOVED owl camp! She still talks about it and has a new found love for owls."
-Nicole S.

"My 2 girls did bug camp this year and had SO much fun! They have continued to talk all about bugs even weeks after camp ended. They have told me a number of interesting facts about bugs and insects and are still talking about camp. Bug Camp was so much fun that we turned right around and signed up for Rock Camp. It was another great week that we are still talking about! Thanks Cristina!"
-Kristin B.

"Miss Cristina taught four of my children from 1st-3rd grade. The summer camps were so fun and educational. They got so in-depth, they became experts in whatever they were studying. She teaches them how to learn and ask questions. My kids loved each one she did during the summer."
