Today was pretty cool. I liked the galaxy program we did. It was challenging. The only part i didn't really like was alot of talking and not enough hands on. Bye.

The first day of camp was pretty fun. I learned alot about different rotating masses and how to model there movements in a simulation program. I also really like the Mac laptops!!

I really liked the first day of camp. I thought it was lots of fun, and I really enjoyed using the GalaxSee program to model the rotation of the earth around the sun. The pictures of the Milky Way were SO awesome!

Today was a very informative day. I liked doing the Galaxy activity. The teachers talked a little too much, but that was okay.
