<strong>Monday: </strong>

This week's theme of the week is 'Green Earth'. We are so excited to see what fun things we are going to be doing this week! In computer class, we played a game on PBSkids where we needed to help Barney pick up all of the trash and recyclables and put them in the appropriate bins.  During our sport time outside, we separated into two teams and played kickball, which was a blast!  We spent more time outside for our game time and played a game called 'Who's got the beanbag?'  For our game, we all stood in a circle and one camper had to be "IT" and stand in the middle of the circle.  The campers who are standing in the circle had to pass the beanbag behind their backs and the "IT" camper had to guess which camper was hiding the beanbag behind his or her back.  After game time, we were all hungry for lunch since we spent so much time playing outside! In art, we got to paint our clay molds that we created last week.  In hollywood, we talked about how much fun the carnival was on Friday and discussed what we would be doing this week.  As always, we had so much fun in the pool.  This was needed after a hot day in the sun!  In science, Miss Eva talked about how to keep the earth clean and healthy which goes along with our theme for the week! We can't wait for the rest of the week!

<strong>Tuesday: </strong>

Today in computers we got to play more earth games on PBSkids.org. After playing games in computers, we got to go see Rizzo's Reptile Show. There were all sorts of reptiles like lizards and snakes! The kids were so excited and interested in the show! In art, we got to finish making our spin art from the carnival and some kids finished painting their clay molds. Every tuesday in camp is cheer day! We created and learned our cheer during hollywood. After hollywood, we got to go into the pool which was very refreshing after having so much fun in the heat! We finished our day today in science where we continued our discussion about firefighters and how they help the earth!

<strong>Wednesday:</strong>

Computer class today was so much fun! We played a Caillou matching game on PBSkids.org. After snack time, we played sharks and minnows outside with Miss Sabrina. This was so fun although it was extremely hot out today.  During game time, we played freeze-tag! We were so exhausted so we came inside for a water break and played the basketball game, knock-out.  After lunch, we had art with Miss Sheri, who is our new art instructor. We made bullfrog masks where the tongue shoots out just like the party favor!  In hollywood, we started to brainstorm ideas as to what our 'American Idol' music video will be. We chose the song, 'Surfin' in the USA'! We plan on filming our music video tomorrow in the pool and some of us are going to bring in boogy boards to use in the video! We are so excited for this! The pool was refreshing as always and some of us are starting to move up a level! The last activity of the day was science with Miss Eva. We learned about water pollution and how we shouldn't throw things into rivers and oceans that don't belong there.  We also learned that you can't always see the pollution in the water. We had such a fun day today!

<strong>Thursday:</strong>

Today, in computers, we played Earth Day games on PBSkids.org which goes along with our theme of the week, Green Earth. Today, in sports, we played an exciting game of baseball which the kids had so much fun playing! In art, we have been making  cool projects with our new instructor, Miss Sheri, who the kids all love! After art, we headed to Hollywood where we got to videotape our music video for the song 'Surfin' in the USA'. The kids had such a fun time dancing and singing to that song! The pool today was very refreshing after a long day of fun! Our last activity of the day is science with Miss Eva. Today, we learned about acid rain in science and the kids had a lot of fun learning about acid rain! Overall, we had a great day and are looking forward to tomorrow's activities.

<strong>Friday:</strong>

This week has been such a fun week! The campers learned so much about cleaning up the earth, reptiles, and acid rain. Today, we had a Future Stars Camp BBQ with water balloons, ice pops, and hot pretzels. In computers, we played more earth day games on PBSkids.org which the kids loved. After computers, we stayed inside to play games rather than going outside to play sports since it is so hot today. After lunch, we went to art and continued to make necklaces and bracelets. In hollywood,  we played a couple games before we had to leave early to go into the pool. Overall, we had a great day and great end to another  week at Future Stars!
