The first two weeks

So, the last two weeks have been very busy. I am taking a 5 credit class, a 4 credit class, and working 40 hrs at my internship. The week of June 7 was when my internship started. The whole week we spent during orientation. I met my other team members, interns, as well as learned the different schedules for the camp, the different programs, various activities, and the facilities. The team members became acquainted with each other and the supervising staff. We discussed team building activities to use and how to discipline the children. The interns also decorated the facilities and rooms for the various groups, cleaned, and did other duties to prepare for the camp to start the following Monday (June 14). The first week of camp was the previous week that just ended. It is a little difficult to get the children in control, but it was only the first week. I am a floater which means I get to work with all three ages group. I basically check on all the groups throughout the day and run activities when asked by my fellow team members. I teach dance classes and create arts and craft lessons for each group. This is a very busy summer for me, so I do not know how much I will be be able to blog. Well, back to doing homework...
