Hey guys! If you've stumbled across this thread, you've found the planning thread for the April Scratch Reading Camp (SRC).

Intro
The first SRC was hosted by doggiecake, and called Winter Reading Camp. They talked with me and agreed to let me host it. But, December is kinda far away! So SRC is a tri-annual camp now. For those of you in SWC (Scratch Writing Camp) then you know you might be too busy to participate in 2 camps at the same time! Scratch Reading Camp will always be held the next month.
SRC will run in April, August, and December.


Schedule
January - Picking a co-host, leader/co-leader sign-ups
February - Leader/co-leader sign-ups, leader selection, co-leader selection, camper sign-ups
March - Camper sign-ups
, camper placement, preparing activities/reading crawls/contest, etc.
April - Camp runs
May - Judging contest, posting results, picking a co-host, leader/co-leader sign-ups

Tentative Schedule

4/1-4/7 Weekly: TBD
4/1: Icebreaker activities (Introductions in 3 word comments? April Fool's prank stories?) AND Paper.io-off! Get points based on your score. (MOST FUN ACTIVITY EVER!)
4/2: Reading crawl
4/3: Discussion of character traits/how new people affect plot
4/4: Place yourself in world/as character
4/5: Cabin Reading Relay? (person/pages needed to read: A/1, B/2, C/3, D/4, E/5, F/6, G/7, A/8, B/9, C/10 and so on…Cabin with most completed “race legs” gets extra points)
4/6: WPM war (war for highest Words Per Minute)
4/7: Percents! (doggyee's idea) Based on the amount of pages remaining (have NOT read) in your goal, read the following amount of pages (of those remaining):
  • Below or at 250? Read 10%
  • 251-500? Read 7.5%
  • 500-1k Read 5%
  • 1k-2.5k Read 2.5%
  • 2.5k-5k Read 2%
  • 5,000+ Read 1%
IF YOU GET A FRACTION OF A PAGE ROUND UP.

4/8-4/14 Weekly: Acting! (Choose one chapter from a well known book and assign parts to each camper to Voice Act. Leaders, put together in a final project. Camp will vote. Ex: Funniest, Most realistic, Best adaption, Above-and-beyond, etc.)
4/9: Reading crawl
4/10: Truth or Dare (Truths about you in relation to characters/plot/setting/etc. Dares about READING. Like “read 40 pages under the covers”, “read aloud with different character voices for 2 pages”, etc)
4/13: Page war (war for most pages in a time limit)

4/15-4/21 Weekly: War Week! (Cabin wars all week, plus each day has challenges for each type of war. Saturdays are war days, but THIS week Saturday will be no-war day.)
4/15: Time wars & Page wars (shortest time for reading specified number of pages)
4/16: WPM war
4/17: Reading crawl war
4/18: Intense wars (Challenge is higher, points earned lower)
4/19: Ship war (Convincing the opponent to change their mind about the ship they support from SAME FANDOM)
4/20: NO WARS!!!
4/21: Point-gamble wars (In depth explanation later)


4/22-4/28 Weekly: Book Trailer work? (This may be contest project)
4/26: “one pager” by clove-, see leader app for more info (IDEA)
