In-Person & Online Camps For K-12 Students Creative Writing Camp

REGISTER TODAY

We live in a creative world where ideas, collaboration, and adaptability are a must–and writing is essential. So how do we prepare our children for their future? How do we ensure that they become thoughtful leaders for change, passionate learners, and curious thinkers we need to improve our world? Through Creative Writing Camp, young people discover the power within themselves – to create, innovate, and connect with others.  

The Only Place Where Children Learn from Talented Educators & Writers

In addition to being accomplished educators working in classrooms year-round, many have Masters and Ph.D.s in writing and education and are published authors. Our instructors are experts at this, and they’re ready to help your child shine.

How We Measure Up

For 20 years, Dr. Carl Scott of the University of St. Thomas has evaluated the success of the program and found students improved in writing skills, creativity and self-confidence.

How Creativity Leads to Success

According to Becoming Brilliant: What Science Tells Us about Raising Successful Children (Kathy Hirsh-Pasek and Roberta Golinkoff), what children most need for 21st-century learning are the 6Cs: collaboration, communication, content, critical thinking, creative innovation and confidence.

Creative Writing Camp works because it’s where writing is an exploration. It’s where one day your child will create their own map to a planet they’ve just discovered, and the next day they’re writing the ending to a 3-act play with a group of friends. It’s where they’ll publish their first poem. It’s where they’ll begin to see what they can become. Whether they’re not sure how to get started or they already write a million pages a day, they’ll feel at home writing here. This is where the spark of invention begins.

GET STARTED

Register Today

Please read through the information below and view the embedded tutorial videos to make the process as smooth as possible.

The 3-step process for registering includes: Step 1 - Family Account setup Step 2 - Pre-registration application for your student(s) Step 3 - Registration.

If you completed Steps 1 and 2 during the Pre-registration period between Jan. 16-29, please proceed to Step 3. All others should start at Step 1.

Note: Completion of Steps 1 and 2 during the Pre-registration period does not guarantee your student(s) a place in camp.

A Family Account is required to register a student for our 2024 Creative Writing Camp. To register a student for camp, a parent/guardian must create a Family Account using their own name in order to successfully begin the pre-registration application process. Once you have set up your account, you will be able to add your student(s)/member(s) to the Family Account. You will be able to manage all members in your Family Account.

Note: If you created a Family Account when registering for a previous summer's CWC, please use your existing account.

Should you need step-by-step instructions, we have created a brief video tutorial to help guide you through the Family Account Set up. 

Video Tutorial - Create a Family Account

Video Tutorial - Manage Your Members

After setting up or logging into your Family Account, including adding student(s)/member(s) you plan to register for camp, you are now ready to complete the parent permissions application for each student. Cick “New Application” in the menu options of your Family Account, then “More Information” and “Apply Now.” You will now be able to “Start” CWC pre-registration for your student(s)/member(s). During the application process, there are six “To Do” pages to complete for each student. As you complete each page, you will see a green check mark next to each page to reflect your progress. To move to Step 3, Registration, you must complete all “To Do” items in order to submit the parent permissions application. Completing these “To Dos” will take approximately 10 minutes per student/member.

Before you begin Step 2: “Pre-registration”, you will need the following:

• Medical Insurance Information
• Emergency Contact Information
• Contact Information for an alternate authorized person to pick up your student(s), if applicable.

Note: If registering for virtual camps, a unique email address is required for each student you plan to register.

Just Write It! Our signature camp experience for incoming K – 12th grade students, in-person and online

Jump into the magic of creative writing! This course offers an array of fun, interactive writing activities and customized exercises designed to help students develop their unique voices, broaden their imaginations, and boost their confidence as writers. With the help of professional writers and teachers, students will explore a range of poetry, prose, and creative nonfiction as they use their writing to investigate their worlds and examine issues that are important to them. During the week, students will peer review each other’s work, and receive feedback from their instructors. Students will share their creations at a celebration on the last day of camp and take home a portfolio of their collected work.

Magical Worlds (6th/7th) Do you enjoy folklore, stories with magical settings, characters with superhuman abilities? As far back as ancient times, people have lived by the phrase, “Life is what you make it so make the best of it.” In this playful course you will do just that—build your own world! Guided by your writing coaches you will learn the basics of worldbuilding and create, explore and develop your own original world. You will delve into narrative genres such as science fiction, fantasy, and superhero fiction as you explore writings with a fantastical edge. You will leave with the tools needed to help you create new worlds in a variety of genres.

Nature: A Writing Inspiration (6th/7th) “Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts…. Rachel Carson

A wooded pass covered in freshly fallen leaves, or perhaps a thunderstorm rolling in through the evening sky. Nature has a way of capturing the eye, and inspiring those who gaze upon its natural beauty. Through this course students will have a chance to experience writing that centers nature as its inspiration. By using outside writing time as well as prompts and mentor text that show how other artists around the world have crafted writing for and inspired by the great outdoors, your young writer will be able to capture the beauty from their eyes while enjoying nature.

Focus on Fiction: Characters and Conflict (8th/9th) Dive deep into the heart of storytelling! This course is an exploration of the elements that breathe life into compelling narratives. Uncover the secrets of creating multi-dimensional characters with depth and authenticity, while also delving into the art of crafting engaging conflicts that drive your plot forward. Through a combination of insightful discussions, writing exercises, and constructive feedback, you will hone your skills in character development and conflict resolution—the tools you need to captivate readers and weave unforgettable tales!

Uncanny and Unreal: Adventures in Sci-Fi and Fantasy Writing (8th/9th) Embark on a captivating journey into the extraordinary realms of science fiction and fantasy. Whether you're a novice or a seasoned fantasy writer, discover the secrets of crafting immersive worlds, creating compelling characters, and mastering intricate plots in speculative fiction with other fantasy fanatics. From the art of genre blending to developing your unique voice, this course offers a dynamic blend of writing exercises, workshops, and collaborative discussions, providing the tools and inspiration to bring your wildest imaginings to life on the page. Join us and unleash your creativity in the fantastical landscapes of the uncanny and unreal.

The Art of the Essay (10th/12th) The history of the essay finds its origins in the core Renaissance ideal of “rebirth.” This course will allow you to give “new life” to the art of essay writing by asking you to examine your personal story and connect it to a broader world of concepts and ideas. We’ll analyze this important and passionate literary form that will take your writing beyond familiar boundaries. We’ll experiment with fun, contemporary non-fiction forms like flash non-fiction, recipe writing, humor, and even lampoon to expand and sharpen your essay writing skills. Through the writing workshop model of peer review, you will work with your fellow writers to hone techniques and approaches, and you will leave with a portfolio of several completed essays.

Answer:   Camp Tech Revolution Online is the only camp which utilizes the proprietary Tech Revolution curricula along with state-of-the art online technology to provide a dynamic and engaging camp experience no matter where you are!

Question #3:  Who are your instructors?

Answer:  Our instructors are the very best out of a large pool of qualified applicants we consider. We hire less than 3% of applicants. Typically, our lead instructors consist of teachers, college professors, undergrad/grad students from top-tier/Ivy League colleges/universities, and the occasional superstar student entering college in the fall. Assistant instructors typically consist of accomplished rising seniors. Our instructors are extremely knowledgeable in the subject area, passionate about working with kids, highly responsible, and all have cleared background checks. Instructors go through a rigorous orientation and training prior to the summer camp season and have constant support from on-site camp directors and our central office. We put them in a position to succeed… and they do!

Question #4:  Do campers usually attend for one week or more than one week?

Question #5:  How do you group the campers at camp?

Answer: Campers are grouped by age and ability. We run multiple levels of curriculum in each camp, allowing for campers to attend camp with us at any time during the summer, even if they are beginners. Our campers can sign up for any week and be placed appropriately in camp. This provides our camp families with maximum flexibility.

Question #6:  Do campers improve their skills at camp?

Answer:   Yes! Campers receive approximately 12.5 hours of concentrated time in their camp activity per week. This, combined with our cutting-edge curriculum and high level instructors, allows our campers to improve a lot! They are also attending with other campers who share similar interests, which fosters learning through peer to peer interaction.

Question #7:  How do you keep camp fun?

Answer:   We hire fun and dynamic instructors! Campers are also selecting subjects that interests them. We offer a great balance of specialized activities, socialization, competitions, and much more! 

Question #8:  Do you have a camp director?

Answer:   Yes!  A camp director manages the Tech Revolution Online experience! The director is trained to ensure the daily operations at camp are running smoothly and that campers are having a great time and learning a lot. Our camp director is available to answer your questions by phone and email if you need to communicate with him/her during the day.

About Word Camp

As of 2022, Word Camp has become a program of Cosmic Writers , a creative writing education nonprofit founded by the directors of KWH Word Camp. The program will continue operating in the same way it has since 2020: free, virtual creative writing workshops for kids, offered in a multitude of genres, taught by college student instructors. To learn more, visit https://cosmicwriters.org/word-camp.

Welcome back — it's our second summer of Word Camp! For a week in late June or early July, we invite young writers in grades 3–8 to spend an hour a day in a writing workshop of their choice. Villain-building! Sports writing! Slam poetry! In every workshop, writers will read fun sample pieces, work on projects that they're excited about, and meet other kids who share their interests. No writing experience necessary — just passion.

If you have any questions, please contact Word Camp Director Rowana Miller or Assistant Director Rebekah Donnell .

Word Camp Schedule

Session i: june 21st — june 25th, 2021.

10:00–11:00 ET — Becoming the Bad Guy: Villainous Writing for Middle Schoolers Taught by Sophie Quaglia

Have you ever wanted to get inside the mind of a villain? Or wondered what it would be like to do bad things? In this workshop, we will create our very own villain characters and drop them into various villainous situations. By the end of the course, each writer will choose one specific circumstance they'd like to explore in-depth and write a piece — in any genre! — about their character in that situation.

11:00–12:00 ET — What Do Dogs Think?: Writing from Nonhuman Perspectives for Elementary Schoolers Taught by Rachel Swym

Lots of stories are told by people, but what about all the not-people that have stories? Animals, plants, toys, rocks computers, cities, planets! In this workshop, we'll read stories and write about what nonhumans do, see, don't see, and think about. Each writer will create multiple story ideas and one finished story over the course of the week.

12:00–1:00 ET — Black Panther and Beyond: Afrofuturism for Middle Schoolers Taught by Ashley Codner

"Wakanda Forever!" The famous phrase from Marvel's "Black Panther" franchise points to the enduring impact of the film and its message of Black empowerment. In this workshop, we will think about how and why artists create technological and futuristic worlds, and how those Afrofuturist themes can help us envision our own hopes for the future.

1:00–2:00 ET — Seeing and Being: Visual Poetry for Middle Schoolers Taught by Farah Sayed

It's poetry like you've never seen it before! We'll explore how poetry can take on many different visual forms. We'll also learn how to use font, word patterns, and color to enhance the meaning of a poem.

Session II: June 28th – July 2nd, 2021

10:00–11:00 ET — Play Ball: Sports Writing for Elementary Schoolers Taught by Joey Piatt

From baseball to bowling, sports have the power to create special moments that we can all connect with. We will explore the power of sport through writing in this week-long workshop.

11:00–12:00 ET — Making a Monster, Adopting an Alien, Conquering Existential Anxieties: Science Fiction Writing for Middle Schoolers Taught by Juliette Palermo

Have you ever wanted to create a monster? In this workshop, we'll get to know science fiction classics, link science fiction to real life events and anxieties, and unlock our full creative potential through a mixture of collaborative and independent writing activities.

12:00–1:00 ET — Choose Your Own Adventure: Interactive Fiction Writing for Middle Schoolers Taught by Ian McCormack

In this workshop, we will explore the world of interactive fiction and write our own 'choose your own adventure' short stories! This genre is oft underappreciated, but tremendous fun to both write and read.

1:00–2:00 ET — Improv Slam!: Spoken Word Poetry for Elementary Schoolers Taught by Isabella Schlact

Yes... and?! Combining the fundamentals of poetic writing and improvisational acting, we'll learn how to write and perform spoken word poetry. Each day will consist of improvisational acting games, mini-lessons on elements of spoken word, and exercises for kids to hone their craft.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What's the structure of the workshop week?

A: During the first four days of the week, participants will learn about/read/write/discuss work within the genre, and then on the fifth day, they'll share their pieces. Each instructor also offers optional one-on-one hours every day where kids can come in to get individualized feedback and talk about their writing.

Q: Are parents invited?

A: As much as possible, we'd like this to be a kids-only experience, just like in-person camp. Of course we understand if parents want to verify our legitimacy on the first day of the workshop. After that, though, we encourage parents to step back and prepare to be wowed by what their kids write by the end of the week!

Q: What are the expectations for workshop participants?

A: Come with your Zoom video on and your writing brain prepared!

Q: How big are the classes?

A: Not very big. We want each writer to get lots of individual attention from the instructors, and we also want to maximize opportunities for kids to interact. Our workshops are first come, first serve, so sign up quickly before space fills up!

Q: Can I/my child participate in more than one workshop?

A: Unfortunately, no. We want to give opportunities to as many different kids as possible.

Q: Who's teaching the workshops?

A: Undergraduate students at the University of Pennsylvania! A number of our instructors participate in the Kelly Writers House and broader writing community at Penn, where they've taken and taught writing courses much like these.

Q: Hmm, an hour a day doesn't seem like enough time to write an entire science fiction story/poetry collection/sports narrative.

A: For some kids, it is! For other kids, we know they need more time. Each workshop is structured so that writers can work on their projects as much or as little as they'd like outside of the four hour-long periods. We're flexible :)

Q: What if the writer is in the summer between fifth and sixth grade — do we sign up for the elementary or middle school workshops?

A: Decide based on the year the writer is going into. The elementary school workshops are for writers going into third, fourth, and fifth grades; the middle school workshops are for writers going into sixth, seventh, and eighth grades.

Q: The program times are listed in ET (US Eastern). As long as I/my child can reasonably attend the workshop given our time zone, are the workshops open no matter where we live?

A: Yes! KWH Word Camp welcomes young writers wherever they are.

Q: After the workshop is over, what will I/my child leave with?

A: Writers will come away with a piece that they can share with their friends and family, and treasure forever.

What is Badgerdog Creative Writing Camp?

For more than 10 years, Badgerdog's Creative Writing Summer Camp has given Austin youth a space to fall in love with writing, discover authentic self-expression, learn from a professional writer, and publish original work.

Each spring break and summer, Badgerdog hosts writing workshops for rising 3rd- through 12th-graders. These fun and challenging workshops allow students to work closely with a professional writer as they explore the arts of poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and playwriting. All campers experience the joy of reading, writing, and sharing their original work.

At the end of the summer, all camp students will have their work published in one of two professionally produced anthologies: "Rise," for elementary-aged writers, and "Emerge," for middle- and high-school writers. In the fall, Badgerdog hosts a Young Authors Reading & Anthology Launch, where selected campers perform their work and celebrate the launch of the anthologies.

All workshops will be capped at 15 students per workshop. Our traditional three-week camps will include fun exercises in poetry, fiction, and revision. We also offer Book Crushes, a camp that features a specific book that campers will read through together, and Genre Workshops, which cover one specific topic in writing.

Badgerdog Summer Camp Workshops are labeled according to the grade that students will be entering in the fall. You will see the following workshops on the registration site:

• Lower Elementary School: campers who will be entering 3rd + 4th grade in the fall
• Upper Elementary School: campers who will be entering 5th + 6th grade in the fall
• Middle School Workshop: campers who will be entering 7th + 8th grade in the fall
• High School Workshop: campers who will be entering 9th - 12th grade in the fall

Parents say Badgerdog helps kids and teens write with greater skill, comfort, and enthusiasm. Campers say Badgerdog helps them find confidence and play in the writing process. Read about camper Anya Van Arnam's evolution as a writer through Badgerdog  here in the Cedar Park High School Paper .

Frequently Asked Questions

At the end of the summer, all three-week summer camp students will have their work published in one of two professionally produced anthologies—Rise, for elementary-aged writers, and Emerge, for middle- and high-school writers. In the fall, Badgerdog hosts a Young Authors Reading & Anthology Launch, where selected campers perform their work and celebrate the launch of the anthologies. All summer camp writers are invited to attend!

Can Any Young Writer Attend? Of course! Both eager and reluctant writers find Badgerdog’s workshops engaging and empowering. Our creative approach to the craft of writing allows hesitant writers to practice an essential skill in a no-fail, supportive environment—while also having fun! For more advanced writers, Badgerdog’s teaching artists provide challenges and offer personalized feedback.

If your child has dyslexia, dysgraphia, ASD we can accommodate your child. We’ve heard from parents of other campers with these challenges that Badgerdog is an ideal place to practice writing and learn new skills. We ensure that campers feel encouraged to continue trying, experimenting, finding their voices. We welcome technology that makes writing easier and more accessible for campers. We want to avoid the use of smart phones or anything that may distract other campers, but otherwise such devices are encouraged. Our registration form will allow you to share information about your child with us so we can provide tailored support, or you can contact our Programs Coordinator to discuss questions or concerns before signing up. Not Just Writing for Writing's Sake

What do Parents and Campers Say About Summer Camp?

• When asked how campers felt when writing, 94% used a positive phrase, such as "energized," "alive like a bird," "like I have a workable outlet for all of my ideas," or "like a balloon of happiness has just gotten blown up inside me.

What do campers like most about Badgerdog?

• small, supportive classes
• expressing themselves without being judged
• hearing other classmates share their work

• meeting new friends and fellow authors
• the creative ways "we learned to write"

Here's what we heard from parents:

• 92% of parents say Badgerdog has a positive impact on their children's writing skills.
• 94% say Badgerdog has a positive effect on their children's attitudes toward writing.

We asked parents to identify the most significant positive effect of summer camp:

• "Attending Badgerdog  was the best activity C. participated in this summer. I was so impressed with the high quality of his instructor. The class was well-organized, with engaging, creative activities each day. And she created a safe space for C. to do something he finds pretty terrifying -- explore his own talent. It's a mark of how safe he felt that he actually participated in the end-of-camp reading with very little resistance."
• "Badgerdog drastically reduced writing reluctance, increased writing fluency, and increased interest in sharing writing with others."
• "The green light for self-expression."
• "Having a positive experience with a subject my child doesn't like."
• "It was great seeing and hearing my daughter describe each day of camp -- what she did in class, seeing her so enthusiastic about writing and speaking."
• "Exposure to different forms of writing. My older child was only interested in writing novels before attending camp, and this experience really opened her eyes to other forms."
• "Excitement about being published and having a 'real' author work with my daughter."
• "My daughter is dyslexic and has always been very negative about writing. However, she has had only positive things to say about her experience at camp."

Teachers working with San Diego Area Writing Project share the belief that writing is a process. Young Writers' Camp engages students in that process and allows them to discover their own style, voice and potential. Our goal is that each young writer, regardless of skill level, has the time and space to experiment in a variety of genres while developing creativity and confidence.

"My daughter absolutely loved this camp. The positive encouragement, new friendships and creativity she found has sparked a fondness for writing that did not exist before."

"My son loved your camp! You have a great, enthusiastic staff and a super program. The works he created and brought home blew us away! I'm really proud of him and what he accomplished during your program. We are looking forward to doing it again next year."

"Initially, I thought she would be bored out of her mind. Every day when I picked her up she was happy and full of energy. I believe the creative writing experience positively impacted my child's mind."

"He had a blast! The first day he was excited to inform me that 'this is different from school and it is really cool.' And I saw him working on his writing after camp at home--during the summer--that shows how engaged he was! Thank you for such a wonderful experience."

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
