The Summer Reading and Writing Enrichment Camp provides two weeks (July 18-22 and July 25-29, Monday -Friday) of one-hour long, enriching reading and writing experiences for students in grades 2-12. Each day has a scheduled one-hour reading camp (1:00 p.m – 2:00 p.m.) followed by a writing camp that also runs for one hour (2:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.). There’s a reduced price for enrolling in both camps. Students can also enroll in reading camp for one week and writing camp the next week for the reduced price.
Students will be engaged in highly motivating small group activities (i.e. web quests, literature circles, readers’ theater, poetry jams) working with peers and with literacy interns. Interns are certified teachers who are near completion of the Masters in Literacy Education. Canisius College faculty will be supervising the camp experience.
