"I feel like like the workshop will help me get good grades. What surprised me about the workshop this time is, the amount of songs. I'd use making videos in the future and drawing. Suggestion: Teachers shouldn't assign anything so I can do it myself with no pressure."
- Julian M. "This program isn't what I thought it would be, but it made me a better writer without totally boring me to death. At first it was kind of baby-ish like playing the drums and singing songs, but when we split up into our groups it got tougher and funner. The computers were a little confusing at first but with the help of Mrs. Beltran we were able to use the computers and use websites like Animoto; We made a video about ourselves using pictures and words to tell you about us. Storybird was funny because we grabbed a set of drawings and wrote a story with the pictures. Some of my favorite activities include describing our warped animals and maps of our hearts. This program definitely made me the best possible writer."

"It's awesome because we get to work on the computers. Things I'll use in the future are the Animoto videos. I love making videos and writing.
-Chanpreet S. "I think the program was good. The teachers let me play on the computers afterschool while they were in a meeting. Two things I used my skill for is to write about my trip to New Mexico, and two, I wrote about New Jersey. I don't think we need any more help."
- Danielle G. "I feel the people who work at the workshop have helped me become a better writer. What surprised me was that I had never thought that we would make videos and play drums. Two things that I will use in my writing from now on are are putting spaces between punctuation and to use figurative language. There is nothing that this workshop needs to improve."
- Ari S. "I think it's awesome because we get to use computers and use drums."

- Eva C. "For the past two weeks in writing camp, I have done a lot of things. It wasn't what I'd thought it would be. This workshop was entertaining, fun, spirited, and energetic. We actually did art projects here. I had fun at this program! The best part was doing computers. That was the best thing we did, for me, all of the two weeks!
My favorite teacher here is Mrs. Taylor. This program was really really cool! I hope whoever didn't come here this year comes next year." - Jaidyn V. |
