The day started off with gray clouds and drizzling rain, but that didn’t stop us from
having another load of fun today. Before breakfast started, two students who’ve been in camp for
three years were asked what their favorite part of camp is. Both of them answered that they’re
always excited to come back and spend time with their camp friends who they might have not
seen during the school year. As soon as the kids entered the cafeteria for breakfast, they ran to
the board to choose their after lunch activity. This ranges from going to the gym or watching a
movie in the lecture hall. After breakfast and a brief camp meeting, the kids headed off to their
classes.
Each class spent a part of their day doing unique activities. In Creative Writing they
watched Michelle Obama’s last commencement speech as first lady of the United States. They
used it as an example for when they will be writing their own speech that will include a plot
twist. The students in Annie Jr. spent some of their day practicing lines and memorizing songs.
For acting the kids were engaged in games of learning how to use their bodies and voices in
different ways on stage. As for painting and drawing, the students, to the sound of relaxing
music, sketched in their notebooks.
This is only examples of what a couple of classes did today. Meanwhile, the camp quilt has started getting constructed by the dance teacher, Miss Tessa. The quilt is made out of colorful squares of paper that have the students’ answers to the question of the day that was asked yesterday.
This shows how active and creative just one small part of a camp day is.
