Campers entering GRADES 6-8 choose a topic THEY LOVE and turn it into a vibrant digital project!

 

Writing, technology, and digital citizenship

You never know where writing will take you! Nowhere is this more true than in our middle school program. This summer, your child will begin by writing about a topic of their choice. Over the course of the camp, they will transform their written words into an exciting capstone video “animatic.”

Whether it’s baseball, cooking, video games, fashion, or any other passion, your child will use this interest as the foundation for learning. They will gain skills in writing, research, technology (including video editing), basic journalism (such as interviews and podcasts), and safe, responsible internet use (“digital citizenship”).

It is all designed to be an age-appropriate journey that is true to the Adventures in Writing Camp mission: to help campers grow through positive, confidence-building experiences with writing.

Common Core, Uncommon Approach

AIW Camp helps middle school students to develop as sophisticated writers, giving them the tools and confidence to use writing as a means to share their voice with the world.

The belief that all students need to be effective communicators, collaborators, critical thinkers, and creators guides all learning activities. Lessons are sequenced to build upon prior student knowledge, and structured to allow teachers the opportunity to meet varied student needs.
