Summer School Tutoring--- Day 2

Yesterday went great... I got to know the kids and they are all unique in very different ways. I also got a sunburn, but watching them play kick-the-soccer-ball was so funny and cute. I was so tired when I went home at 3,so today I am going to leave at 12:40 to go swimming with my mother... Today, the kids are making portfolios to put all thier language arts paperwork in for this summer school 'year'... They are so creative. One of them has drawn a very detailed fishing trip, while the girl sitting next to him drew a fashion show...LoL... TTFN(Ta Ta For Now)

The Cobra Event

I am reading a book by Richard Preston that is called The Cobra Event. I am about one-third of the way done with it so far. The book is like a scary medical mystery. There is a chain of unsolved deaths that are all related but no one can figure out how. But, yet they know that there are about to be more deaths...Richard Preston is the author of a bestseller: The Hot Zone. If you like scary books that you can't put down, then these books are calling your name...

Summer School Tutoring--- Day 1

This summer I had the choice to either go to summer school for fun or do something more productive like tutor little kids that need a little extra help... So I chose to help out some local 4th, and 5th graders understand what they need to know to be successful in life. It has been good so far, but I am only 2 hours into it. Today is the first day of summer school and the kids are just talking and playing games... The kids are actually really fun to be with, and I can see the potential in each and every one of them...
