The campers are beginning to diverge in their writing. Ages range from 8 to 13 - that is probably the biggest five-year gap in the human lifespan. Some are composing several page-long short stories or scripts, some much briefer, simpler works, and then there are those who would just as soon not write at all.

This is all the be expected, the challenge in a 45 minute writing session is how to cover all of those bases, and make sure everyone gets enough attention. Today, as an experiment, we are dividing into five, much smaller groups. Bobby is going to have one class entirely made up of volunteer guitar players. Apparently they are very good!

Jodi is working with paint, which is always nerve rattling, especially when you are using someone else's facility (don't worry, St. Mel's - we'll clean it up.) Tim has begun to explore our theme of CONFLICT RESOLUTION through the classic Dr. Seuss story THE SNEETCHES. And today we meet our GLTF intern, Rachel.

Should be another high intensity, big fun day of surprises and art!
