 I was able to get a good video of the boys waking up to the harmonious sounds of System of a Down.  This is truly my favorite part of the day.  I hope you enjoy the video.
It is a good thing they keep on serving meals that the kids like because our ORT keeps going down, which is a good thing.  The french toast was out of this world.  The kids are in their field groups now dissecting animals and learning about forest fires and other lessons related to nature. 

Learning to juggle.

It is pouring right now and the kids are out playing Predator vs. Prey.  It is a game in which they learn about the life cycle.  Some students are hawks, others are snakes, and yet others are insects and producers.  It is the largest game of tag they will ever play.
Tonight they will be showing off their acting skills with Thursday Night Live.  Think of it Saturday Night Live but toned down for kids.  Some of the skits are pretty funny.  We will have pictures and videos I'm sure.

Shark dissection. Yummy!!

It is funny how the children's demeanor changes as the week goes on.  They are getting very tired, but the NC staff keep them going.
