Description:
AUG. 5-8 Firmly Planted IGNITE summer camps all start with 30 minutes of group chapel followed by 2 1/2 hours of specialty camps designed to ignite your student's faith. Cost includes a camp t-shirt. Here’s a camp for LEGO fans! During this week, we will do a variety of activities, games, freestyle builds, sensory play, crafts (yes, even with food!), and short YouTube videos—all themed around LEGO bricks!
Students will also get their own LEGO set to work on each day. The set will be part of the class fee, and the students can take these small builds home throughout the week. The exact set will depend upon availability, based on enrollment.
Please note, this LEGO camp will not be a “hard core” LEGO class. We will not be engineering and creating masterful builds to win competitions. The camp is designed for children who want to have general fun with LEGO bricks.
Each camp day will consist of 6 parts:
1.) LEGO Fact-of-the-Day (including a 5:00 minute or less YouTube video)
2.) Game/Activity using LEGO bricks
3.) Snack time
4.) LEGO craft and/or sensory activity
5.) Building time for the take-home LEGO set
6.) Freestyle building opportunity
*Firmly Planted has a YouTube Pro account; so there will be no advertisements during videos.
In this class students will take turns reading aloud and sounding out words that we do not know yet. We will also be working on our sight words. We will read a book a week. Please see our reading list below:
