Write on Sports Summer Camp
Write on Sports Summer Camp 2024 uses sports as the theme as a way to connect with students in an authentic and meaningful way.
During camp, we turn the students into sports writers to strengthen their writing and literacy skills. Students pick a theme of their choice (related to sports) and identify a project including a feature article or fiction story. They will also work on a multimedia project, either a video or a podcast episode. Another feature of the camp is the Guest Days; bringing in professional journalists (from TV, radio, and print media outlets) and athletes (ranging from college, professional, and retired professionals). We include a sports-related field trip.
