If you’re wondering what your camper has been up to this week, here are some questions to get the conversation started…
GNARLY STUMP CAMP (Pat’s Group)
- Yesterday you took a hike to a secret spot in the park. What did you do at that spot?
- Today you learned a little bit about leverage in nature. We used a tool called an Atlatl. What is that tool intended for? Did you try your hand at using the Atlatl?
- We also tried throwing tomahawks today. Do you remember what mechanical advantage the tomahawk has? (Hint: it has two advantages; a wedge & leverage!)
TURTLE CAMP (Carson’s Group)
- Yesterday your group floated the Eno River all the way to jumping rock. After jumping rock where else did your group float?
- Today you learned a little bit about leverage in nature. We used a tool called an Atlatl. What is that tool intended for? Did you try your hand at using the Atlatl?
- We also tried throwing tomahawks today. Do you remember what mechanical advantage the tomahawk has? (hint: it has two advantages; a wedge & leverage!)
