Elementary Camp: Day 4

Day four at Elementary Camp and the clock keeps ticking! Yesterday was jam-packed with activities and the kids were constantly working on something! My kind of art room :)
The littlest campers got to the middle steps of making their dragon marionettes yesterday as well. 
bead animals, drawing, AND shrinky dinks
Most of the day was taken up with groups working on bead animals and doing drawings.. I had a different stack of drawings for each day group!


Shrinky dink time!
I think each camper made at least three different shrinky dinks - and all of them were different.  Lots of the kids wanted to make Minecraft designs (just like in Elementary Mini camp with the fuse beads!)
bead animals..

here is the construction of the dragons.. I was fixing a step that was misunderstood.

"someone took our cubby!"

yes, well, yes.

Game. Face.

MY KIND OF ROOM

shrinky dink struggles


The two Bres!
Almost all the groups worked on bead animals, drawing, and shrinky dinks. It was a hectic day, though. I didn't leave enough time between groups to clean and organize for the next activity, so I was feeling pretty tired halfway through the day! Some of the campers were working on weavings as well.. I had to be a real expert at keeping track of time, some of the campers that needed more attention/help, and the projects themselves! In total.. I had over 5 different projects going at the same time. I think I did an all right job, all things considered.. The kids were really distracted because they were preparing for skits and it seemed like the whole camp was just HYPER.
I will post a longer reflection on Day 5's entry.
