in class.
[Oscar's Camp Canyon Experience]
Twelve-year-old Oscar has just finished a wonderful week at Camp Canyon.
He had the time of his life--making new friends, developing new skills, and
discovering a love for science among many other things. And Oscar learned
an important lesson: Sometimes, when faced with a difficult situation, it's
best just to let it go. He learned, too, that things are not always what
they seem.
Camp Canyon is a summer camp for boys and girls from eight to sixteen.
In the U.S., there are many kinds of camps. Often, kids focus on particular
skills or learn values from religious books and traditions. Camp Canyon,
though, is different. Its main aim is for the kids to discover for
themselves how to deal with difficult situations using ideas based on the
importance of communication and mutual respect. During their week at the
camp, the kids develop their powers of judgment and sense of right and
wrong--all while having fun swimming, playing games, and doing hands-on
science and nature projects.
This was Oscar's second summer at Camp Canyon, and he enjoyed showing
newcomers around. On the first day, he introduced himself to Dylan, a boy
of his age attending the camp for the first time. Oscar spent a lot of time
helping Dylan get used to his new circumstances, and they quickly became
friends. The both enjoyed playing video games and climbing trees, and at
the camp they discovered a shared love of Gaga Ball, a form of dodgeball.
Oscar and Dylan played Gaga Ball until they were exhausted, throwing the
ball at the other kids and screaming with laughter. Afterward, sitting on
their bunk beds, they would talk for hours about their home and school
lives, and how much they were enjoying Camp Canyon.
One of the other campers was a boy named Cristopher. Initially,
Christopher seemed like a well-behaved, fun-loving boy. Oscar couldn't wait
to get to know him. However, it wasn't long before Christopher's behavior
started to change. He didn't bother to make his bed. He left games and
other belongings lying around on the floor. He was inconsiderate and
self-centered. And he was mean, as Oscar and Dylan soon found out.
"Dylan didn't brush his teeth. And he's smelly! He didn't take a shower
today," shouted Christopher at breakfast, making sure all the other kids
could hear.
Oscar and Dylan were shocked to hear Christopher's comments. Oscar had
always tried his hardest to make everyone feel welcome. Christopher seemed
to take great delight in saying things that upset the other two boys. He
even pushed in front of Oscar when they were lining up for lunch. He just
laughed when Oscar angrily protested.
Oscar consulted the camp counselor about their problems with Christopher.
She gave Christopher a strong warning, but, if anything, his behavior got
worse. The other kids just kept out of his way, determined not to let
anything spoil their fun activities at camp.
One of these activities was a discussion session with a science teacher.
Although Oscar had shown little interest in science at school, this was
particularly fascinated to learn about reflected light and how we see
certain colors. A red object, for example, absorbs every color of the
rainbow, but reflects only red light to our eyes.
"So," Oscar reported breathlessly to Dylan, "a red object is actually
every color EXCEPT red--which is reflected! Isn't that amazing? I just
love science!" Things, he had come to realize, are not always what they
seem.
The campers also discussed ethics and the rules that would be best for
the group as they experienced their week together. Whenever there was a
disagreement, they stopped to consider what might be the right or wrong
thing to do according to each situation. In this way, they learned to
function together as a harmonious group.
Through these discussions, Oscar learned that there is not always an
obvious solution to a problem. Sometimes, as with the case of
Christopher's bad behavior, the answer might just be to let it go. Oscar
realized that getting upset wasn't going to change anything, and that the
best way to resolve the situation without drama would be to walk away from
it. He and Dylan stayed calm, and stopped reacting to Christopher's
insults. This seemed to work. Soon, Christopher lost interest in bothering
the boys.
