Student CAMPS
Zoom
In Person
Our interactive student camps are brain-based. They are designed to explore Language Arts concepts with students through listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Teachers will stay with their students, so no substitute teachers are required! One of the best aspects of student camps is that your students participate in hands-on games and activities that will help them to internalize concepts, and teachers will also see the content that they experienced in an in-service modeled with their students! Some of the most incredible “ah-ha” moments for both students and teachers happen in a student camp. Best of all… they will not want the camp to end!
2 identical 2-hour and 15 minute motivational sessions are conducted on your campus.
Each session services up to 75 students.
We bring everything your students will need.
Interactive and tactile games,
activities, and pep rallies are sure to motivate your students!
Students will create materials to play games during the camp and take them back to the classroom to continue the learning process.
We have the following Student CAMPs to choose from:
Tap & Think Reading
Teach BIG introduces all new READING CAMPS for your students based on a strong analysis of the latest released test! (You can have one or both days! We recommend one now, September-December, and another one in January-March.) We show students how questions are asked and teach strategies for choosing the best/correct answer. We would love to come to YOUR SCHOOL!
Each CAMP is colorful, interactive, and based on the state tests for the grade levels the particular CAMP spans. Students and teachers keep the manipulatives, all game boards and handouts so that learning can continue in the classroom. Not only do teachers receive all CAMP materials, but they walk away with an original Dual Passage set including test questions and a key that explains why the correct answer is correct.
Foundational Passage Analysis CAMP
(Grades: 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th)
The author’s purpose and how to spot the questions that are actually based on the author’s purpose making these items easier to understand and answer
Textual evidence which is used in answering almost every question and where to find the textual evidence
Inferencing which is used in a high percentage of tests question at every grade level
How to approach different types of test questions, eliminate answer choice distractors, and choose the best/correct answer
Reading Question Analysis CAMP
(Grades: 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th)
Textual evidence which is a key to answering almost every test question
Inferencing which is worded differently question to question and needs to be recognized so that students can use the strategies the CAMP teaches to answer inferencing questions
Summary, main idea, and theme, as well as how questions that ask for the main idea, summary, or theme uses the other two to be distractors.
How to decipher what the questions are asking as well as how to eliminate incorrect test choices, and how to choose the best/correct answers when faced with these types of test questions
The Writing Academy
Editing CAMP
(Grades: 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th)
The Student Editing Camp is a tactile, kinesthetic camp that takes students through major editing rules and concepts in a Teach BIG! way. Through brain-based, whole-body games, and activities, students will dive into the following areas, and what they look like in the multiple-choice portion of the STAAR test: spelling, singular and plural nouns, verbs and verb tense, positive/comparative/superlative adjectives, demonstrative adjectives, subjective/objective pronouns, and COMMAS, COMMAS, COMMAS!
Revising CAMP
(Grades: 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th)
In the Revising CAMP, your students will leave with a better understanding of subject/verb agreement and experience comma rules like never before! Sentence structure plays a huge role in this camp as students explore simple, compound, and complex sentences. They will walk away with chants and strategies to help them master and assess sentence structure. Additionally, students will learn to R.E.A.D. so that they can R.O.C.K. They will dive into types of questions and learn how to identify sentences that add value to a passage and those that should be omitted.
