This week we worked on our Camp Rules Video, which was a lot of fun. My group depicted the rule "clean up your mess." Above is the picture of my group in costume (except Shilpa, who was later dressed as a trash monster).

Today, we had people from Camp Team Challenge visit and provide activities for us to try blind-folded. Camp Team Challenge is a camp for children with vision impairments. We tried reading braille, playing checkers and dominos, pouring water into a cup, and walking outside along the path with a blind cane, which was by far the most challenging. Trying these activities put me in a proper mindset to work with these kids, since I now understand how difficult and frustrating every day activities can be without sight. It is amazing how your sense of touch and hearing are heightened when you close your eyes and concentrate.

Also, today, I worked on banners for the first two camps: Camp Team Challenge and Camp Grey Dove (camp for siblings of cancer patients). Pictures of my designed banners are above.
