Yesterday was a bit overwhelming - dividing the entire camp into five, smaller groups. This was great for me, as I was able to give each student a lot more attention, and was able to interview each of them on how their writing projects are progressing. But it did mean no break for the instructors.

Some have finished the first draft of a short story. Others are working on playscripts. Then there are those who have been engaged in exploratory writing, and now want to move onto something different.

Today we played around with METAPHORS. We established ANTONYMS that related to our theme (remember the theme?) and then composed metaphors for each pair of antonyms. Tomorrow afternoon we have more elective sessions, and I am happy to say more students were interested in signing up for writing this week. I will have one class of 4 guys, and one of three girls.
