Week 2 Theme: Unusual Animals
Day 6: Monday, June 15, 2020
Welcome to Camp Legend today! I am excited that you came by for some fun camp activities. Each day of Camp Legend will consist of SIX parts -(1) Warm Up, (2) Read Aloud, (3) STEAM Activity, (4) Roll Call, (5) Trail Hike, and (6) Look and Learn. Work through these activities in order (they build up the previous activity) and have fun exploring new things!
1. Warm Up Activity
Before we jump in to our activities for the day, let's have some fun with a little warm up activity. Click on the button below to get started!
Directions: You will only be adding a STICKY NOTE to this Google Jamboard. Please do not write, add pictures, or edit/delete anyone else's sticky note. This is an exercise in us being good digital citizens (remember from our coding last week?) and making good choices while being online. My question to you: What is something that you enjoy doing for fun (hobbies/activities)? |
2. Read Aloud: Arial the Chef
Listen to our read aloud for today!
3. STEAM Activity: What is something New To Try or Something You can try again?
Today our STEAM activity will be to really dig into your passions. Sometimes our passions or hobbies are things we are good at, and sometimes they are things that we need to keep working at, making progress along the way. We will use the Engineering Design Process to help us plan and think about those passions and hobbies and choose something we can try for the first time or try to improve. You should be able to use things you have around your house to make these - be creative and think outside the box!

Parent/Guardian Note: If you are unsure how the video and STEAM activity for today can be scaled to the appropriate level for your child, please click here for suggestions, ways to encourage collaboration, communication, critical thinking, creative innovation, and confidence, and STEAM connections.
If you or your child needs a reminder of how to navigate through the Engineering Design Process (as I will be backing off on the detailed descriptions of what each phase entails), click here to watch a refresher video or go back to any of the STEAM Activity videos from Week 1 (or here for a Safe YouTube link).

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. Trail Hike (Optional Extension Activities):
Below is a Google Slides presentation that has a variety of activities that you can explore (or click here if you are unable to view the presentation below). Try one, try two, or try them all!
6. Look and Learn!
When you submit your attendance in the daily Roll Call, you are asked to share a picture of what you created today for the STEAM activity. When you submit a picture, it will show up below (it may take a few seconds and you might have to refresh your page). I know I LOVE seeing what you are making, and I am sure you are curious what others have created! So, make sure you complete your attendance (Roll Call) for the day and submit a picture of what you created!
