As kids we just got enchanted with water. Our parents even bought us a pool made of balloon stuff. I really don know until now what we call it. What I remembered back then was it was indeed the best time of my life and I love water.
So when way back our childhood days I had learned to swim during summer. All of us just loved to compete who would win the race back and forth between the opposite river beds!
Now my love of water goes beyond swimming. Equipped with a neoprene shoes, wet suit, helmet and paddle and a life jacket I transverse the rivers of Italy with total enjoyment of course!
As we met our guide with all the necessary equipments, he led us towards the shallow part of the water. And give instruction. We were instructed how to make easy and hard paddle, to turn around the boat, and left back paddle and left to forward easy paddle and all those necessary instructions before we paddling our way to the rapids of the Italy River.
Just try to play with the water in Umbria, Avisio River, Stura di Lanzo all located In Italy. One can choose from the beginners’ course to the advance course. Though ones you had tried to learn to navigate your way through the river you will indeed get glued to the white water rafting activity.
This is one great activity for family bonding or group activity during summer. Just the mere thought of riding the air balloon raft is already an exhilarating experience for a family or group.
Though water rafting in Italy is available the year round, it is best done during summer and with a summer camp group. In fact, the idea of a summer camp merely for whit water rafting is one great idea one can venture into implementing.
A survey showed the United States is failing when it comes to honing math skills for both boys and girls and those who succeeded in math Olympiads are known to be US immigrants who came from other countries that value mathematics.
The study also said girls are those who usually excel in math because of their exceptional talents and perseverance to learn the techniques. But the skills to become engineers, math researchers and scientists are rarely seen in Americans, according to the survey. One of the reasons seen in this is that American culture does not really give too much importance to math subjects that also discourage both boys and girls to learn more.
To make them love math, after realizing that people from Asia and other emigrants only excel in math, there are now international summer camps for math held in various parts of the globe. This is done so that students in the US will have a good time interacting with math wizards of the world, thus, learning their skills and strategies.
Janet Mertz, a professor of Oncology at the University of Winconsin, said many people in America seem to be living in a culture that tells girls they can’t do math and only Asians and nerds excel in this subject. In fact, the study found out that people representing America in competitions are children of immigrants from countries where math is on top of the major subjects. Americas math leaders are now confident that with the Kids Summer camps for math and other activities more and more American students would love to include in their priority subjects because math is a very useful subjects in other learning process, involving science, physics, calculus and even engineering and other related subject matters.
Hundreds of math wizards are now participating in summer camp activities from all over the globe with the same purpose of excelling in math, as they not only learn the strategies in math solving problems but also the many opportunities of meeting new friends across the globe and having the time to take a look at how other countries develop. International students are also happy to travel to different summer camp destinations in the United States, Europe, and Asia.
