<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Week Five: Where the Wild Things Are!</strong></span>

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Eagle Gators</span>

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">
</span>This week in the Eagle Gator's group, we had a lot of fun with many different activities involving the theme, Where the Wild Things Are!  In Hollywood, the campers performed a fake snowball fight skit that actually occurred in the movie, Where the Wild Things Are.  James Ottomanelli, Ishaan Sharma, Kirsten Brutans, Michael Adams, and all of the other campers participated in the fake snowball fight, with the first four names having the bigger roles in the play.  In Art class, the kids drew their very own monsters, showing their ability to come up with the most random monster they could think of to help represent this weeks theme.  One camper that had an outstanding drawing was Matthew Mruz, coming up with a fake pokemon character that looked as if it could be shown in Where the Wild Things Are.  In science, the kids learned about Rube Goldberg machines and how they work!  Each of them came up with their very own contraption and put them to the test in the assembly room.  As the week progressed, Mr. Barry showed the kids that they could make a Rube Goldberg device out of pretty much every thing, and allowed them to make one made up of only themselves and a few props.  Swimming most certainly is the best time of the day for the kids, allowing them to beat the heat and cool off in the pool.  While in the pool, the kids showed off their fast swimming skills by competing in relay races!  In computers the kids adapted to the "popular" game, Club Penguin.  Because it is an online game that allows you to communicate with other Penguins, the kids entered the same worlds and played games and chatted with each other at the same time.  In both the sport and game periods, the kids showed off their athletic ability in any sport that you can think off: basketball, kickball, baseball and even soccer.  For this weeks camper of the week, it came down to the very last minute to choose because everyone was liable to fill that position.  Having to pick one was very difficult, but the one we choose, we felt deserved it the most!

This week we had many activities based around the theme "Where the Wild Things Are". In art, the campers created their own monsters.  Hudson, Sarah P., and and Abby had some awesome monsters. During Hollywood everyone has been practicing scenes from the movie, and the one that everyone seems to enjoy the most is the snowball scene. Patrick, Christian, Zach and Josh all  love to throw the snowballs made of paper all over the room. We have also noticed the great improvement Jordan has made during swim class! We are sure he'll be in the deep end in no time. This week we've had three great shows, we had a basketball performer come in, the campers also learned how to do magic tricks, and we had "Eye's of the Wild" come in! The campers were amazed by how easy some of the tricks were to do, but they also know that a magician will never reveille their secrets to a non magician. The animal show was so cool, everyone  loved seeing the pig, a baby fox, a hedge hog, a skunk, and a chinchilla. We can not wait until next week!!

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Week Four: Green Earth Week!!</strong></span>

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">G/E/G</span>

This week in the G/E/G's group we had a lot of fun in the different activities that occurred throughout the day! In Hollywood class some of the boys, Jaden Adams, Michael Adams, Patrick Kennedy, Christian Alvacez and Andrew Eglevsky performed a hilarious dance, the Harlem Shake! In Art Class, they made clay pots trying to represent the Green Earth theme for this week! In Science, they were letting there imagination go wild by making roller coasters out of tape and paper!  Sarah Petitjean and Brady Rouilland made there roller coasters with the head of a dragon to give theirs a cool look. When it is time for the campers to go into the pool, they are so overjoyed to be able to put there new awesome swimming skills to the test in relay races! As the days progresses, they get to play fun games in Computers and it also allows them to cool off the hot summer sun! We end the day with sports and a game, they get to learn different sports and then get to play fun games. This week many of our campers in the G/E/G's were worthy of the campers of the camper of the week, but in the end it came down to one camper with his overall excellence.

<strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Week One: Dr Seuss Week!!</span></strong>

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">G/E/G</span>

This week's theme was Dr. Seuss.  In science, we spent our class building Dr. Seuss-like inventions and tall towers.  We also got a chance to play with sound frequencies to make cool beats.  Michael, Jaden, Patrick, Andrew E., Andrew M., and Matt enjoyed playing various sports ranging from soccer to dodge ball .  G/E/G created an amazing mural to represent our group and is now hanging in the gym.  The past 3 days we worked on drawing and painting our own version of a Dr. Seuss fish.  Cierra, Amy, Emily, Carolyn, and Rachel really loved this week in art and were very creative.  Christina, Sarah, and Abby had a great time when we were at the reptile show on Tuesday.  We learned the difference between venomous and poisonous animals.  Venomous is anything that bites or stings, and poisonous animals are toxic when you eat them.  The chinchilla was the group's favorite animal.
