Challenge an Champions: Day 7

Congratulations to taday's Daily Challenge Winner, Kayla Adams. She wrote that she challenged herself by withstanding the heat, assisting others, and being a role model for younger campers. Good Job Kayla!
In Mr. David's class today campers worked on creating a poster for one of the given countries, using pictures and statistics on AIDS, culture, death rate, and demographics. The campers could choose from South Africa, Chile, Brazil, India, Spain, or China as their country. In Mrs. Jamie's class they learned about creating tangrams, which are 7 piece puzzles used to make pictures. They also took facts they learned about the Amazon and turned them into scientific notation problems. In Mrs. Heather's class campers used their own characteristics and personality to create a "personal recipe" representing themselves. In Mr. Sam's class they created paper rockets using soda straws and paper. The campers then did multiple trials to test the distance that their rockets would fly. Some of his campers were also working on their STEM, Science Technology Engineering Math, career brochures.
All of the campers had productive academic classes!
