Reading Sessions I & II:
12 p.m. - 3 p.m.
The summer reading camps are designed to
help children who are reluctant and struggling
readers improve literacy skills and become
more confident students. However, the camp
offers an opportunity to enrich reading skills for
those who do not require intervention.
Each child is
helped to read
books of their
choosing and
encouraged to
develop a love
of learning. The
children receive
personal
attention in a “failure-free” setting. Skills that
help children become better and more
confident readers are emphasized throughout
the day’s activities. Undergraduate students
attending Texas A&M University - Corpus
Christi serve as teachers for the camp. Camp
participants work in small groups, where they
experience writing, pleasure reading, phonics,
encoding and decoding, reading
comprehension and other reading strategies
that accommodate various learning styles.
