📖 Let’s continue Katniss and Peeta’s journey through the second novel in The Hunger Games series, Catching Fire! During this 5-week camp, learners will read one part of Suzanne Collins' best-selling novel, then come together during class to discuss the story and its meaning. Alongside the novel, every student will be tasked with completing a fun, hands-on project designed to immerse themselves in the world of Panem. 🗣️ This summer camp is fun, inclusive, and collaborative. Each discussion session is a small group and everyone’s thoughts and ideas will be heard and valued. No matter if this is your first read through or your fiftieth, this is a space where everyone is welcome to contribute. 🌟 This camp is part two of a three-part series covering the original three novels in the Hunger Games Series. For The Hunger Games and Mockingjay, check these listings (coming soon!). If you’re interested in a bundled course with all three novels, see this listing (coming soon!). ☺️ Safety is our priority. Our classes are inclusive spaces where each child gets the chance to showcase their skills and creativity. Your kid's voice and space is protected — whether they’re catching, trading, or battling. 💛 If your child is looking to make new friends, learn valuable life skills, and enjoy reading through this book, enroll them with us! Together, let’s value reading and make some fantastic memories. 🗨️ Learners will be completing art based projects based on the reading and should feel confident that their artwork will be appreciated from beginning to advanced level! It's about where we're going and helping each other grow! ❗ Due to the discussion heavy nature of this class, this camp will only run if there are 2 or more learners enrolled. Thank you for understanding!
