My Project

We have a new classroom theme called "The Camping Room"!

Many of our students have not experienced camping before.

With these books, we hope to spark their interest in learning all about what fun camping can be. Learning about S'mores, animals, tents, and more. Also, what fun it can be whether you are in a real forest, at home, or using your imagination.

These books will be placed in our centers that are camping-themed for our students to immerse themselves and learn what it is to go camping while building reading skills. We hope to give them a camping experience!
