<strong><span style="color: #000000;">Monday:</span></strong>

 Our 7th week of camp started out with seeing some old friends again!  We welcomed some returning campers back to camp!  It is so nice to have them back with our Pandas / Ducks 1 group.  We started the day off with playing some fun board games, puzzles and reading books in the Panda Room.  It was a nice way to ease into the camp week.  The campers had a lot of fun keeping cool and having fun playing the games. 

Afterwards, we headed to art where we colored puzzles that we can take apart and put together.  Some of us have a little bit of coloring left to do, but the puzzles will be coming home today and can easily be finished with markers at home.  The puzzles all look great!

Next up was hollywood.  We were treated to viewing clips of movies such as "Cars" and "Finding Nemo".  We really loved watching these clips from the movies.  Later on this week, we'll start to practice for our big camp show next week. 

In the pool, we continued to work on our kicking skills.  We swam and practiced putting our faces into the water, too.  It was so much fun!

In science, we got to see some very pretty rocks that another camper had brought in for us to see.  There was a pretty blue rock, crystal rocks, and even a tiny bit of gold. 

We had a wonderful start to our week and we're looking forward to more fun in the days ahead!

<strong>Tuesday:</strong>

The Pandas/ Ducks 1 campers had a fun start to the day.  We began with playing "Run the Bases" in the gym and it was a lot of fun!  We had many laughs.  Afterwards, we headed to art where we were able to create a poster that involved the theme "Under the Sea".  Our masterpiece will be on display during our camp performance on the last day of camp.  It sure looks great!

During hollywood, we played some fun games and spent some time practicing our camp cheer for later on today. 

Next, we headed to the pool where we worked on kicking with the kick boards, floating on our backs, making bubbles as well as swimming with our arms.  We did great working on these skills and are becoming better swimmers each day!

In science, we watched more of "A Bug's Life" and really enjoyed watching this fun film.  During our computer class , we played some fun games on the computer. The highlight of our day, however, was performing our camp cheer for the entire camp. Ask your Pandas/ Ducks 1 kids the words to our cheer- think of the old "Toy's 'R Us!" commercial and it should give you a tiny hint as to what we sang.  It was fun performing this cheer for everyone to hear! :)

We can't wait for tomorrow for more fun and memories! 

<strong>Wednesday:</strong>

Our day at camp started out with two fun games in the gym.  First, we played a game of "What Time is it Mr. Fox?" as well as "Red Light, Green Light".  Both were a lot of fun and the Pandas/ Ducks 1 campers enjoyed every minute of it! 

Afterwards, we headed to art where we made some cute fishes as props for our camp show next Friday.  We are really looking forward to performing in our camp show!

During hollywood, we began to practice the songs that we will be singing in our damp show and we are certain that the Pandas/ Ducks 1 campers will do a great job.  Our camp-wide show will revolve around the theme of movies that take us "under the Sea."  :)

Speaking of water, in the pool today we got to practice our kicking and floating.  We even got the chance to practice blowing bubbles in the water!  The Pandas/ Ducks 1 are really are making a lot of progress in the water!  We're so proud of them!

Later on in science, we got to see butterflies up close!  The kids had so much fun getting to see them!

In computers, we got to play some fun games on the computer which is always a blast for us!

We really had a fun day at camp!  Tomorrow is sure to be another great day and we're looking forward to it!

<strong>Thursday:</strong>

The Pandas/ Ducks 1 campers started their day off getting their bodies moving!  In gym, we played "What Time is it Mr. Fox?" as well as "Running Bases". 

Afterwards, we headed to art where we created "lobster hands" to wear during our camp show.  They look so cute and will be such a great costume for the kids to wear next week at the performance.

Next, we went to Hollywood.  Your little Pandas/ Ducks 1 kids did such a great job working on singing our songs for the camp show!  We're going to continue to work on singing the songs this week and next so we're all ready for the camp show next Friday. 

In the pool, we splish-splashed and continued to work on our kicking and floating skills.  We also continued to practice blowing bubbles in the water.  We're becoming more confident in swimming a tiny bit longer without any assistance and it truly is fantastic to see!

During science, we continued to watch the cute movie, " A Bug's Life" and during computers we played more fun games on the computers.

This week truly has flown by!  It has been full and very fun.  We're looking forward to ending our week with our camp photo scavenger hunt tomorrow and forming more fun memories as our days at camp are coming to an end!

<strong>Friday:</strong>

Outside was a fun place to play our game this morning!   We played our favorite game of "Running Bases"!  It was such a fun time for all the kids and they sure were hard to catch.

Afterwards, we headed inside to begin our scavenger hunt!  We did a great job finding some of the places that were on our list around the college campus.  We really tried hard and came in second place out of four teams.... we're so proud of our Pandas/ Ducks 1 campers!

Next, we headed into the pool.  We had free swim today, so we got to play and splish-splash.  It was refreshing after all the running around we did during the scavenger hunt. 

During science class, we got to take another look at the beautiful butterflies.  There are so many of them and they are doing well. 

In computers, we had a fun time playing some of our favorite games on the website.

We had so much fun at camp today as well as this week!  We said good-bye to some friends for the rest of the summer, but we hope to see many of our friends next week during the last week of camp!
