Week 6 Camp ECC goes to the Olympics!
Camp ECC raced through week 6 with exciting Olympic-themed crafts and activities!
We started the week discussing the sports that are a part of the summer Olympics. The students shared their favorite events they would like to participate in if they were to attend the Olympics.
Campers made gold medals and paper plate laurel wreaths with leaves glued on top. They also made their own torch out of paper hand-prints to carry in the opening ceremonies. Some classes made a Team USA windsock to hang in their rooms at home!
The students also decorated picture frames with red, white and blue stickers and dot markers. They took a picture on an Olympic podium with a USA flag in the background. They wore their medals, held up their torches and wore their laurel wreaths.
We set up obstacle courses to create our own track and field events. We even made our own hurdles with solo cups and paper tubes.
In music class, the kids paraded around the gym to the Olympic theme song. We also danced to the song “Party in the USA.” Our sensory bins were full of red and blue bracelets, stars, and rings that they could wear during the day. We celebrated the end of the week with Red, White and Blue bomb pops!
As camp ECC 2024 ends, we hope the kids had an exciting, positive, experience! We look forward to the 2025 camp! Enrollment is currently open for the 2024/2025 school year. Click here to learn more about fall 2024 enrollment!
