Sixth grade camp

Sixth grade camp: September 23rd - 26th /2019

I attended the four day camp. This is a tradition for this school. I liked the Sixth grade camp, we played a lot of games and there were many interesting activities. It was very fun.

Canoeing 

The first day we rode the school bus to the campsite, and there were some counselors from eighth grade. There were many groups; I was in Owls Root. When we finished lunch we went canoeing, two people on one canoe, we rowed together. Because it was windy, my hat dropped into river. When we tried to get it back, my hat had sunk to the bottom of the river. I like canoeing, canoeing  gave me a rare experience.

Tangle tower

When we finished canoeing, we went to climb the tangle tower. There were many choices, it was very high. I was a little scared, so I just climbed two times. Some people’s  sports skills are good, so they climbed many times. Some people were scared so they just climb one time.

 

Cabin

My cabin had eleven people who slept there. Every afternoon we had to make our cabin very clean. A man banged on the door and slammed the door open. When he came we were very nervous and had to be uniform and stand straight. Everyone had to be the same (have hair tied back or not and socks on or no socks). He will throw the trash can on the floor. If he finds dirt somewhere he will ask who did that part . The person has to said “me , sir” and go there and pick up the dirt. There were some bugs in our cabin like spiders . Some students  were brave and they killed the spider. Some students  screamed. When the night coming a talking teacher let us have a circle and she asked some questions about the day and we answered. It was a warm cabin! 

Johnson Shut-ins 

Johnson Shut-Ins state park has many big rocks and waterfall. The teacher let us climb on the rocks. We learned the rock’s history. The red rocks were made by oxidation. I created something that would change the flow of water. My design made water slow down. We played in the water. It was fun!

I like my sixth grade camp, this camp let me make friends, we have many activities need to complete together so I learned how collaborate  with each other, this camp is very fun.
