Closing camp thoughts
Don't worry. This is the last camp related post, I promise. In my defense, it was ALL I did this week......Nothing boosts morale like having a mom come up to you to say her daughter was thrilled about what she learned in theory class. In her words, "Thrilled and theory seem like an oxymoron to me, but she was."
...Nothing ruins that morale like having one student in desparate tears after he takes his final test. "I didn't understand anything all week long!" Wipes eyes. "I just made lucky guesses!!" More tears. And he waited until 10:00 this morning to tell me this... great. Why do 14 year olds have to be such perfectionists?
..."This is the cool class with the cool redhead teachers." From Opera History with three redhead counselors as teachers.
...Student shakes my hand. "Thank you Miss Koons, I actually learned something."
It was a good week...
