Camp Odyssey continues with Nature the Ultimate Designer and Engineer – Week 5- July 11
Week 5 – Nature the Ultimate Designer and Engineer
Nature Campers will begin the week having fun with patterns in nature, spider webs, trees, roots, leaves and so much more. They will dig to find the natural tunneling engineers; worms and ants and then experiment with earth worms to learn how to become tunnelers themselves. There will be a day to focus on how humans learn to become effective engineers through team building and leadership games. A day of exploring engineers of flight; birds, butterflies, bees, and other flying insects. Observation of their flights will influence how each camper creates their own pair of wings. The week will end as campers use their new skills to become forest engineers. They will design and build all day.
