Science Camp Teachers are AWESOME!
The teachers that volunteer each year bring individual talents and strengths to the group. I have some who are able to come back every year, and their experience improves camp each time. They receive a full day of content training, in this case it was focused on using Arts in deliberate ways to teach STEM subjects. They spend 4 long days with the camp kids and stay positive and flexible. Then I ask them to come back and teach more than a hundred more kids at a community park activity. They are awesome! They do receive PD credit and other benefits, but I know their time and energy are taken so that many local kids can have a great experience!!
