Let's Get Fit and Green Eggs and Ham

 To start the week off we had Let's get fit day on Monday. The campers had fun staying active by playing: hopscotch, a math sponge game, and a fitness card game. Also we watched an episode of Magic School Bus to learn about our muscles in our bodies.
Tuesday's theme was Green Eggs and Ham. The campers practiced their rhyming skills by matching rhyming words together and writing their own Dr. Seuss like stories. We also read the book Green Eggs and Ham together as a group and we made Dr. Seuss costumes. 
This whole week will be survivor week with a final survivor day on friday. The campers have been split up and put into survivor teams. Through out the whole week the campers will be completing tasks and challenges with their team members. At the end of the week the team with the most challenges won will be the survivors!
