# HWIS Summer Camp kicks off

**Jul 6, 2015  ** Written By HWIS

[In the Classroom](https://blog.hwis.org/topic/intheclassroom)

Summer Camp kicked off this past week with classroom adventures to Beijing and Costa Rica! HWIS campers deepened their language skills, as they explored these regions through art, architecture, food, music, and dance. Mandarin students cooked dumplings and designed masks, while Spanish students rolled up their sleeves to make delicious empanadillas and arroz con leche.
