 Re: Winter camp panic!
Hi,
I taught at a camp one winter and we saw the same group of kids for 2 weeks at a time, 6 days a week for about 6 hours a day. While that sounds rough, it wasn't that bad.
The morning (or first half of the day) was the lesson. Just like any of the classes you are used to teaching.
The second half was spent practicing a play. I'd suggest spending half your time building up to something that they can present on the last day, preferably to their parents. This allowed them to practice their English in a more natural way (having a dialogue in a play), have fun and save you from pulling all of your hair out!
"The play" is a very common thing to do at these camps.
