Course Description

Welcome to the Monster Vacation Resort Project! In this two-day, hands-on learning adventure, kids will use math, writing, and creativity to design the ultimate getaway for friendly monsters. On Day 1, students become resort planners with 50 Monster Bucks to spend on slime spas, bat flight courses, and more. They’ll practice addition and subtraction to stay under budget and begin drafting a persuasive travel brochure using catchy slogans and descriptive language. On Day 2, they’ll bring their resort to life through a model or detailed drawing, then share their brochure in a lively “Monster Pitch.” It’s the perfect mix of STEM, writing, and imagination, and a fun way to practice real academic skills in disguise! 💡 Academic Considerations: - Math: addition and subtraction within 50 (We will learn and practice together, but students should know how to add and subtract double-digit numbers before class.) - Writing: persuasive techniques, descriptive language, and brochure layout. (Students should be able to write full sentences to create their brochure.) - Design: hands-on creative thinking, labeling, and presentation (Students may opt out of presenting if they are uncomfortable with public speaking. I do provide a kind and supportive environment.)
