Welcome to the Red Room Summer Camp at the Center for Young Children on the campus of the University of Maryland.
The Red Room is a group of 16 children, 3 to 5 years of age. The camp runs six weeks from June to August. In addition to swimming two times a week, having music class and just plain camp fun, we focus, investigating in-depth, on one topic as a summer study utilizing Project Based Learning.
This summer, our class studied Healthy Bodies. We used Michelle Obama's Let's Move program as an inspiration. Please explore the phases of our study and see how we were able to incorporate the Maryland State Standards for pre-k in science and other domains by integrating them within our project based study topic.
Teachers- Katie Bobotek and Vera Wiest
