I sent the local hands-on museum two course proposals for their 4-6 year-old day campers -- and now I've got myself two weeks of summer teaching fun. Can't wait.
M is for MAMMAL Camp
The purring cat, the digging gopher, the swimming whale and the laughing hyena all have something in common with you: They’re MAMMALS!Learn how we mammals are alike – and how to recognize other mammals around us.Make edible elephant cut-outs, sculpt crazy clay zebras, and craft your own toothpick porcupines as we delve into the world of mammals together.
Sticky Slippery Messy Mix-y Texture Camp
What better way for curiosity to lead to learning than through the texture – and sometimes taste! – of a good mess?Whether testing the viscosity of cornstarch-and-water, the hardening powers of papermâché, or the total tastiness of no-bake chocolate cookies, everybody will love observing, exploring and experiencing the world of the ooey-gooey.
Come on! You know you want to be there, too!

Anj - This is absolutely awesome...you (and the kids) are going to have so much fun. CONGRATULATIONS. I' so excited for you. I never cease to be amazed by you! Love, Mom (I'm so glad I just decided to take a peek...I'm the first to se this...yippee)
This is about the fact that you don't look like Sharon Stone, but more like Kate Winslet. Serious! Even your boobs look like hers. I've seen them; all of them!
Anjie, Ashland is indeed blessed to have you in town. What a fun time you and your little ones will experience. Science ?World? is fortunate to have you to latch onto. I can see you leading other classes given throughout the school year. They'll see your results after these two summer camps and WANT MORE! Way to go, Anjie!!!!! Lovingly, JJJ
Whatever shows up here will be a gift to my kids in about 2020. It's my answer to scrapbooking about them and a glance at my writing and teaching life.
ROGUE
Rogue - The name of thefarming and timber-producing region in southwestern Oregon. Its mild climate and relative isolation have made the valley a popular destination. The Rogue Valley's community of Ashland is famous for the Oregon Shakespeare Festival.
rogue [rohg] n. a playfully mischievous person; a scamp
No one likes a fellow who is all rogue, but we'll forgive him almost anything if there is warmth of human sympathy underneath his rogueries...
