Another Monday, Another Fun Day!





Happy Monday, ladies!
How was your weekend? Was it full of fun and adventure? Or was it a nice couple days of rest and relaxation?
Today's the start of our last week of camp, as well as National Sunglasses Day! So raise your head up and let's get looking stylish!


Today, Angela started off the day by teaching the girls a new coding language: HTML5! During her session, the girls learned that HTML and CSS can be used to make webpages, then the girls got started on making and customizing their very own!

For our morning activity, the girls played the game of Concentration, in which the girls had to gather around in a circle, place their right hand over the left hand of the girl beside them, and say the first thing that comes to mind from a certain subject.
We also had a friendly little competition. Our final six were: Ifunanya, Angelita, Clarissa, Verity, Julia, and our overall winner Gabi! Congratulations, ladies!

When we returned, Elena taught the girls another new coding language called Arduino. Using a Lilypad, the girls used Arduino to program a small LED to blink on and off. Tomorrow the girls will learn if their code to make an LED turn on and off with a button will work.

After, Elisa returned to test what the girls had learned about Java, by having them play a game called Bamboozled. The girls were split into six teams of four (or three), and advanced around the room every time they answered one of Elisa's questions correctly. At the end they had to answer the SUPER CHALLENGE, which the girls solved amazingly!

Finally, the girls received a presentation from Marie Borchert about Entrepreneurship. We hope they learned a lot about the meaning and importance of being an Entrepreneur.

Blog Prompt: Close your eyes and imagine a piece of clay in front of you. Shape it in your head, mold it with your mind. Bake it. Paint it. Now, what did you create? What color(s) is it?


Remember girls: Callooh Callay~
Tomorrow is a very special day~

Join us for an evening of fun
Where sanity will be undone

We'll watch a movie of a girl named Alice
and have a Tea Party that knows no malice

With treats and games of all sorts and sizes!
(And maybe even some lovely prizes~)

You may dress up tomorrow, be as wacky as you want!
We're already prepared with style to flaunt~

This evening will be great! We hope you won't miss!
YWiC has never thrown a party quiet like this~

(But really girls, remember our Tea Party tomorrow from 6:00 to 8:00! You can join us even earlier to watch Alice and Wonderland at 4:30, and then stay for the party! You're also allowed to dress up as a wonderland character if you'd like! Be as wacky and creative as you want! We really hope you join us, the YWiC staff has worked really hard on it!)

                                                                                                                                                         



Good Afternoon YWiC Alum!
I hope you all had a wonderful morning!


Today the girls started out with a yummy lunch of Cha Chi's!

When the girls returned inside, they were greeted by Elisa! To test what the girls had learned during their Java sessions, Elisa split the girl up into six groups of four (or three) to play a game called Bamboozled, in which they advance through the room every time they answer one of Elisa's questions correctly. At the end of the game, the girls had to answer the SUPER CHALLENGE, which they all got right! They truly are amazing! After Bamboozled, Elisa gave the girls two different Java lab choices to do for their open build. I wonder which one they will pick~

The girls then went outside for their afternoon activity; a competitive game of Concentration. Our final six were Mireya, Adriana, Benita, Reema, Elisa, and our overall winner Jazmin! Congrats, girls!

Finally, they girls came back inside to work on their projects! Everyone's projects are coming along great! They all look amazing and are wonderfully coded~ (You did code your projects, right girls?)
