Last day

Tomorrow is the last day...I hope that you all had fun! What was your favorite part? My avorite parts was when we did the Dance Dance Revolution. I liked Guitar Hero and Mario. If you had to choose something different, what would it be? I was just talking with a lot of the councilers during lunch, and we were talking to ourselves about maybe forming a one-day camp on a Friday and Saturday next year right before the second session comes in. If you had the choice between going next year and staying at home, what would it be? I am glad you all came. Well, I will see you next time. Oh, and please do not spoil the seventh book of Harry Potter. We want to read it!! Stay in touch!

Please take note

I would strongly advise people to not log on to an email account starting tomorrow...the new Harry Potter book will be out, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows. I know that a lot of people will not be logging on. Please do not tell anyone the ending of the book unless they ask or they have already read it.
Like I said earlier, I have enjoyed meeting you guys, and I hope we still will keep in touch. Well, since tomorrow is the last day, obviously we will be going and we won't be logged on as much. Thanks for everything! I will hopefully see you later.
Oh, did you know that they made a tiny robot fly that in a couple of years will be able to spy on people? They just don't know how to control it yet.
Well, I will see you guys later!

Sincerely,
Spaz

We enjoyed reading to students at Telstar Elementary today.

hey ppl read this

hey so today was a really fun day cuz we go to go to Telstar which is an elememtry school. The kids there made my day even better i was upset at first cuz i was late but when i walked in to that school i just felt so glad that i was there those kids put the life in me. They were so great. i really wish that i could go to school there that would be so awesome. all those kids are so cool they r really really cool kids. i hardley even know them and i am goin to say that i love them. i know that i just meet them but i really do like them. me and a friend we were talkin about how these kids really dont have the opportunity that we do so there for we should be happy with wat we have and not complain about wat we dont have cuz some kids in the world may not have any thing at all. When you do!!!!!!

day 4 of change!!

Today was a very good day after my tireing morning we went to go read to some elementry students at Telstar elementry!!! and after being there i realized that i should be proud of what i have instead of complaining about what i dont have! And i didnt realize that other kids in some schools dont get the same special treament that i have , and i felt i was inspiring younger kids and teaching them what i learned when i was there age!!! So im goin to tell you or describe to you the kids i helped out with. The first kid was a girl her name was acasha and she was in first grade and she could read very good im mean i think she was better than me when i was her age!! lol she really inspired me !! The 2nd kid was adrian (boy) he was in 2nd grade and could read a little bit but still a really great reader , like my dad always says practice makes perfect! lol(thx dad).The third person was a boy that was in 4th grade he told me that he couldnt read very well when i got the chapter books out so i said ok thats fine (i tried to not put him on the spot, and i didnt) i worked with him well i just wish i could have taught him more ,and had to read, i didnt make the situation tooo serious so i made him laugh a couple of times(somthing im good at lol...) and he enjoyed it!! The 4th kid her name was brieonca (dont know if i spelled right) and after i got done reading w/ her she gave to hugs to say goodbye i felt ive done somthing right! The 5th kid her name was raven and she was in 3rd grade and was very good reader and she also gave me a hug!! My last and most special was the little boy in kindergarden , the reason why i dont know his name is he spoke sooo low and he was really shy , and i had to read to him of course. I never knew i would learn somthing like this and im glad i did!!!


i would again like to thank the counslors and sharon (



AND ALL MY THANKS TO THE KIDS THAT I WORKED WITH AND THAT LOVED LISTENING AND LOVED TALKING TO ME !!!!!!!! I APPRIETIATED


LOVE ALWAYS BRITTANY MINTON

Green Team: Information Matrix Camp: Day Four

Today was a great day, first we went to Telstar Elementary School and read with the children there. Then we went and ate lunch, and after eating we went to OU Medical Library and learned some neat facts. My favorite part of today was going to the elementary school and reading with the kids because I enjoyed helping them learn to read new words and watching them have such fun reading. We also did scrapbooking today and I love to scrapbook.

Thursday

Today we went to Telstar to read to kids . the kids were so cute! We also went to Oklahoma Science and Health Center. The Oldest book they had was from 1523!! they also had a book that was made from sheep skin! GROSS!!!!!!! When you got a book back then you actually bought the pages instead the whole book . But you can take it to a binder and he binds the books together.

We also get to be on T.V.!!!!!!!!!!!! yeah im so happy great i can wait to see me reading people that i met to dayi hope they loved it when we came and read to them!

Day 4: IMC: Green Team: ~BLONDIE~

Lets see... Today we went to Telstar Elementary. That is a school where there is summer school. We got to have the little kids in Kindergarten through 5th grade to read to and to read to us. Yesterday we went to Borders book store and got books to read to them and then they got to take one of the books we selected home with them. Sometimes they would not be able 2 read so we would have 2 read 2 them. Tonight we are eating at Atkinson Heritage Center. I hope we will have fun.

One little girl

I was in Telstar Elementary School...and there was a little girl that I read to...and she told me that she couldn't read. I found out that she knew the letters of the alphabet and the sounds that they made. But with a little practice, we were able to help her learn...and she was whizzing through books like you wouldn't believe!

Also, I along with some others were interviewed by Fox and Channel four...and I believe Channel nine, too! So, I believe that that part will turn on at 9:00pm today...just a head's up.

Thanks!

Library Fun!

Greetings, IMCers! I dropped in during your Library Fun session on Wednesday and saw all the fun you campers, leaders, and counselors are having. I learned a lot from the information, technology news, and favorite websites you were sharing. Here's a picture I took of your lead instructor showing you some interesting new technology.

Be smart, be safe, and have fun!

Almost the end of the week

Soon, it will be the end of the week of Saturday. Who is ready to go? Not me. But you have to. The only bad thing that I am really sad of the fact that we can't come back to this Matrix camp. Who enjoyed this camp? I certainly did. Well, I would like to hear about it soon...I really enjoyed meeting you guys!
