Checking into camp......camp jobs....building an indoor campfire!

Checking into Camp (class)

 

The student's first job when they walk into the classroom is to turn over their tent card and see what their job is for the day. Second, they hang up their backpack and  do their job. Next, they  take a bathroom break, and settle onto their sleeping bag to do the "clipboard work" while everyone else finishes.

Building a Classroom Campfire





The campfire builder is the most sought after job! It was demonstrated the first day and they took off with it! The "fire" is made from tissue paper, it was folded and taped at the bottom so it could be arranged easily between the logs.

 

Checking off the Schedule

 

The Schedule keeper is a pretty popular job also, it has some "power"! They turn over the green cards as we finish an activity and announce to the class what is next.
