English classes

These are the girls in my English class. They're so precious!!

We've been having fun in English class. It's so encouraging to watch their confidence grow as they speak during class.

Today we practiced ordering food from a menu and then paying for it. It was so funny to watch the girls look over a menu and try to sort through the vocabulary they knew about food, then piece it together with what they saw on the menu. For being 13, they're all brilliant!!



One day this week we worked on parts of the body to make sure they understood...they had fun with the sticky notes! The boys (obviously) didn't get into it as much as the girls did.

A normal day at camp looks like this:
7:00- Aerobics or Polar Bear Swim
8:00- Breakfast
9:15- English Class #1
11:00- Teacher Meeting
12:30- Lunch
1:00- Teacher Prep Time
2:30- Free Time
4:30- English Class #2
6:00- Supper
7:45- Evangelism Meeting
9:00- Game
10:00- Devotions
11:00- Lights Out
12:30- Everyone finally asleep!

That a quick update for now. More stories to come!!
