ICE Writers' Camp 2009 - A Nonsensical Where I'm From
I am from the savory sandwiches, Sweetly devoid of those terrible cronkliches.
I am from the golden, HOT beaches, with those delicious berry-condoo-seeches.
I am from the confetti parades and the bowling arcades, the old-people houses and boogoo serenades.
I am from the clothes I wear also my long voluptuous hair.
I am from my parent’s old sayings like “You start what you finish!” and “Son! Eat that spinach”.
I am from the black checkerboards, ending the game while yearning for more.
But most of all I must say that beyond the beaches and boogoo serenades that I’m from my home, a lystooga naut, my bed, my floor, My ceiling, my couch.
Before I go I think I must say “Boogatenguroknarbengay!”

Enterprise Village



From the website:
Enterprise Village is a self-contained economic education program that provides a hands-on learning experience for students. They spend 8 weeks in their classroom studying economic education objectives that teach them about writing checks, keeping a checkbook register, applying for a job and working in groups. These educational objectives are put into action as the students spend one day at the Village. This space is similar to a shopping mall. During their business day, students work in one of 20 businesses, take 3 breaks, receive paychecks and have the opportunity to be consumers by making purchases in one of the business-sponsored storefronts. Without a doubt, this is considered to be by most students their best educational experience in elementary school.
The Enterprise Village program assists students by allowing them to:
* Develop basic economic concepts,
* Understand relationships between business and consumers,
* Use quality concepts in business and consumer planning,
* Develop a basic understanding of checking and savings accounts,
* Understand a simple decision-making process,
* Work together to satisfy customer’s expectations.
