Week 3 Theme: KIDS' FOOD BASKET TAKE OVER!
Day 15: Friday, June 26, 2020
Welcome to Camp Legend today! This week Kids' Food Basket is doing a Take Over and sharing some really fun and exciting things. The great thing about this Take Over is that others get to share their expertise with you and you get a break from our normal routine. So, make sure you give a big THANK YOU to Kids' Food Basket for sharing this week!
It is like a week-long (virtual) field trip! One thing will not change though - you will still need to complete a Daily Roll Call each day. Remember, this is what we use to check in with you and see how thing are going. I am so happy you joined along for the week and I am super grateful and appreciative to Kids' Food Basket for being a part of Camp Legend and doing a Take Over this week!

1. TOPIC EXPLORATION: Pollinators and Bugs
Did you know that insects and bugs play a big role in how plants grow and develop? Some can be helpful to growth, while others may prohibit plant growth. Check out the video below to learn a little more!

3. STEAM Activity: Bug Scavenger Hunt
Today our STEAM activity will start with doing some looking around outside and doing a Scavenger Hunt. We will be looking for beneficial bugs as well as bugs that are pests.
In your Daily Roll Call for the Day, you will be asked to share 2 bugs that you found on your scavenger hunt. You can use the Scavenger Hunt pages below or the digital (interactive) one (you will need a Google account for this as it will force you to make a copy of the template). Look around outside and see what kinds of bugs you can find, determine if they are good or bad bugs, and share where you observed it.

4. Important: RolL Call!
When attending camp, it is important to know who showed up and participated for the day - just like at school when your teacher takes attendance. Part of our roll call at Camp Legend is to not only know you participated today, but also to see what you created as part of the STEAM activity.
Note: If you are unable to attach your picture of your creation today on the Daily Roll Call form, please feel free to email it to me directly at [email protected] and I will include to be displayed on the Look and Learn below. |
As part of the daily Roll Call, we want to check in and see how you are doing. Sometimes things just don't go our way or are going really well - and this can affect how we think and work, and that is ok! You will see the images below on the Roll Call form - simply pick the one that best describes how you were feeling today!
5. Bonus Video
Kid President has shared many inspiring videos over the years. He even has one on fighting childhood hunger!

6. Look and Learn!
When you submit your attendance in the daily Roll Call, you are asked to share 2 of the bugs you found today for the Bug Scavenger Hunt STEAM activity. When you submit your answers, it will show up as part of the graph below (it may take a few seconds and you might have to refresh your page). The chart counts what everyone found today, so it will be interesting to see the bugs Camp Legend campers found where they live! So, make sure you complete your attendance (Roll Call) for the day and submit a picture of what you created!
