Bowdoin, June 10

Hello from Day 2 of Bowdoin's writing camp!

Today we focused on how to develop setting in a story using descriptive language and having the "end in mind" when sitting down to write. Here are some thoughts from the campers:

Hi! It's Ellie talking. Bowdoin Camp is fun, fun, fun. The thing that I really like the most is long and strong. We write a lot of stories and it is so fun. We learn a lot as well. If you like writing, definitely go to Bowdoin's writing camp!
- Ellie H.

Today I wrote a story about a huge monster that destroyed New York City, played tag at recess, and did fun writing activities with all of the campers.

I like long and strong because you get a lot of time to write.
- Winston Z.

Bowdoin Writing Camp is fun because of the couselor and what we do- every day we have a little time to write about whatever we choose and we also do group writing activities. Every camper also gets to tell about themselves in an opening or closing moment for one of the days of camp. I love writer's camp!
