Writing Camp 2-3: Mission Pen Possible

Summer Language Arts
Schedule in 2026
We're not currently offering any sections of this course. Fill out this course interest form to be notified if we open one!

In this spy-themed summer camp for students entering grades 2–3, campers will develop skills in creative writing, reading comprehension, phonics, and grammar. Our secret agents will put their critical thinking to the test as they crack codes, write secret messages, and even use spy gadgets like invisible ink during writing and reading workshops. In the end, they’ll have not only solved a puzzling mystery but also significantly boosted their writing endurance and independence, preparing them for lasting success in the academic year ahead.

This two-week course meets Monday through Friday for three hours each day.

Space is very limited for our summer programs. Please do not wait until the last minute to enroll. If there are more than two weeks before the course starts, a $200 deposit will be due when enrolling, with the balance due two weeks before the course begins.

Our family regularly talks about AoPS. We try to think about how our life would be different without you all. What if my daughter hadn't learned to love math? What if she never experienced being pushed to her limits? Overcoming failure? She wouldn't be who she is. And she is AWESOME! A very proud mom here. We are so fortunate that we found AoPS Academy. I credit AoPS for much of her confidence.
