The Oregon Writing Project Curriculum Camp provides spaces where teachers can work together to grow their own curriculum about issues that matter to their communities, from gentrification to high school student activism to Mexican immigration. The Curriculum Camp supports teachers to become activists who develop lessons that help their students gain critical social insights while at the same time building their capacities to read and write. Teachers' projects fill gaps in existing curricula by focusing on social justice and nurturing students' activist sensibilities. This article is about the goals and history of the camp.
