What Campers
and Parents have to say about
PARENTS "Julia was very engaged and excited by the multitude
of activities, especially the crafts and food. Even the palmist provided
much to be discussed and perhaps written about at a later date, you did
a great job with the camp!" "I loved the variety of creative activities to
stimulate thinking about sensory experiences and language. Exploration
of the senses was wonderful!! What amazing group experiences you created
for the girls, cultivating a sense of writing community too. Thank you
so much you are an awesome and creative teacher!" "The palm reader was a "hit". Cailey
really enjoyed the word projects and being with a small group of girls
her own age, my only wish would be that camp would be two full weeks." "I liked that you provided an itinerary that
made it clear each day what the girls were going to do, the program was
so thoughtful and well planned. Every day Kaya was sharing her learning
with me, it was great to see her so into her writing. The only thing that
I would change is that I want to be one of the campers (: Your program
is wonderful and I wish the schools made writing and reading as exciting
as you did." "Casey enjoyed the morning pages, cooking, the
art projects and guests. She loved the books that were assigned and looked
forward to camp every day. Thank you! I will highly recommend the camp!" "The camp was very creative and inventive, I
think the experience will stay with her for a long while"
CAMPERS "Thank you for being such a friendly teacher,
and for pushing me out of my comfort zone with my writing. The morning
pages were calming. I liked the cooking day a lot and the slam poet and
palm reader were great!" "I learned how to make my writing interesting.
I loved making the language lamps, they look so cool, and the poetry gardens,
FUN!" "Thank you for a good week that was able to teach
me a lot about myself as a writer as well as myself as a person. You are
a fun teacher and I'm so glad I got to meet you." "I loved the great writing prompts, fun art projects,
and creative guests. I also loved the yummy tea and cookies. You brought
laughter, wonderful poetry and fun to each day of camp." "Thank you for allowing me to come on a scholarship,
it is appreciated at home and in heart. You were a unique gift of the
camp, well, one of them, we were all unique gifts. You brought patient
teaching and experience." "I came to be such a wonderful poet and I think
I wrote a lot more detailed writing since I came to this camp. I loved
the poetry and the art projects." "In this camp I learned how to condense my poetry
and stories, and make them powerful and detailed. I also learned not to
be afraid to speak in front of people. My favorite part of camp were your
kitties and the morning pages. I wish camp was longer. Thank you for being
so fun and encouraging with us." |
