These sample activities offer a window into the playful, purposeful learning at the heart of Base Camp.
Drawn from both the Word Wise and Mighty Math collections, these Pre-K and transitional kindergarten lessons highlight how hands-on exploration, movement, and creative play can build early language and math skills. Whether children are learning new words or making sense of numbers, Base Camp helps them grow with confidence—through activities that turn foundational learning into a joyful adventure.
In this action-packed geometry game, students race, jump, and squeak their way to shape recognition mastery. With squeaky hammers in hand and shapes scattered across the room, each round turns into a lively challenge that gets kids moving while sharpening their ability to identify and name shapes. Designed for early learners, this game blends physical play with early math skills in a way that’s both silly and smart.
In this expressive storytelling adventure, students explore emotions by making silly, serious, and surprising faces—then bringing their ideas to life through an artful mix of books, stencils, and creativity. Inspired by the seven dwarves, young learners listen closely, create their own “eighth dwarf,” and share their feelings through handcrafted face masks—blending language development, emotional expression, and imaginative play in one unforgettable activity.
