Central Market

We tasted some new fruits. Ms. Lily gave us a cupcake and I had chocolate. And we tasted some bubble gum ice cream. And Ms. Janet should have came to get some bubble gum ice cream.

You know that watermelon? Oooh, that watermelon was good! And they had some good music. I was holding that watermelon and dancing with the music.

The ugly harlem...I forgot that...It was kinda good. The first side was nasty then the other side it was good.

TODAY WE TASTED A CHILLY PEPPER! IT WAS SPICY! ~NEXT THING WE TASTED WAS THE UGLY RIPE HEIRLIM TOMATOS! IT WAS NASTY! THEN WE TASTED SOME MORE NASTY THINGS! AFTER THAT WE HAD SOME BUBBLE ICECREAM!

"Our Future"

Why are there so many overweight children? I can think of a lot of reasons why, but which is correct. My personal opinion is that it start at home. When we first discovered that we were going to be a parent, we should start by eating healthy. I know for a fact that while you are carrying the child they are fed through you, so we should practice eating healthy while thay are still in the womb. Easy as this may sound, it is not!!! but It is not too late. As you can see we have already got started and now are finished. We are now at the end of our summer camp, today is the last day Boo Hoo!!! but we are going to use this program in the fall. It has been a journey but a good one. The kids have learned alot about eating and staying healthy. They have done a wonderfull job!! Congratulations!!!

Ms. Sylvia and C.J.'s Conversation at home

Ms. Sylvia and C.J.'s conversation at home (Gabcast! ASA Summer Nutrition Program #20)

muscles

What we did today is exercise and exercise on the ball.
We had exercise on weights. We had chicken wings, popcorn, and some potato chips.

CJ had a question. It was... How do weights make your muscles get big?
The answer is when you use weights, stress comes into your muscles. Stress is telling your body to make more muscles.

I am now the expert on weights and nutrition.

why do we sweat?

The process of sweating is due to the small struture in our skin.

The sweat evaporates into our skin to cool us down.

I learned this by looking up the question.

I like to exercise.

The question that Miss Wyshina and I had to answer was....Why do we exercise every day? We looked it up on the internet and it said that it helps us look better and feel better.


We exercised today and and played the Blast Off Game. Miss Jasmine taught us a new muscle to workout, the tricep.


Miss Janet taught us how to upload the pictures from the camera.

THE ANSER

MY QUESTION WAS WHY DO LIFT WEIGHTS? THE ANWERS WAS SOYOU CAN YOU CAN GET STRONGER!

The Healthy Program

As you can see, I am in a very good camp. I love it. It is the best camp I ever been to. I love everyone in this camp. It is fun at this camp. It's beautiful. I have been here for 5 years, if I'm not mistaken. All my life I loved this program. It's the best.

I researched that fruit makes your muscles bigger when you eat it when you first wake up and 30-60 minutes before you work out.

Today I learned how...I'm learning how to do new exercises and I'm learning new information about eating more fruits and vegetables and don't be hanging around the wrong people because it's wrong. They're going to end up in jail and you're going to go with them and you go somewhere safe at night. They are a lot of people that be outside when curfew has passed. Security be searching. Those who don't think that they can't go to prison, they are wrong.

Today my favorite thing was to do new exercises and log on to search for stuff and I had fun today.

Mr. Darrin gave us get it bag for answering questions, and I was sick and my granny said she was picking me up but she didn't, and I through up. I am still sick.

Field trip at UT Arlington

Today, I read the ASA blog, and I was amazed at how each child response to the field trip was different. What I noticed during the tour was how attentive Jordan Warren was the entire tour. He always full of surprises. He journeled, asked questions and even took some great shots, so did Ms. Keilani.
I really enjoyed the trip, I had never been to their campus so it was an adventure for me. I too learned how the different exercise machines work and what parts they help you work on. I especially liked the treadmills that they have and the walking loop. I am not too fond of weights. What made the tour go well was the fact that we had an excellent tour guide by the name of Mr.Darrell, he was very informative. I feel that this program is going to very beneficial in the long run, which is the goal that we set out to achieve.

Another budding photographer!


I really enjoyed watching Ladarrius be the photographer today. He seemed to really take his role to heart. I watched him crawl under the table and lay down on the floor to get an interesting angle on a photo. Then I watched him get up, walk across the room, and climb over a chair in order to get closer to the subject.

I hope you enjoyed your job, Ladarrius. You did a really good job!
