About This Activity
During this week of camp we will explore our forest base camp and find spaces to create forts! We will draw plans for our construction ideas and make models out of clay! We will put our problem solving skills to the test as we work collaboratively in bringing our fort ideas to life using sticks, logs, fabric, and other found and natural materials. Before, after, and during our building you’ll find us busy at play, reveling in the magic of a nature fort! Val Driscoll is a current Center School teacher in our K/1 Forest program. They come to us from the Smith College Center for Early Childhood Education at Fort Hill, where they spent 11 years as the art studio teacher. Some of Val's favorite things include the changing seasons, a sewing project, hot coffee in a special mug, the ocean, thrift stores, and tacos.
