DEAR ABBY: When we are in a restaurant eating a meal and someone we know comes by our table, he or she always reaches out to shake hands with me to be friendly. I am from the country and sometimes I pick up chicken strips, French fries, fish or hush puppies to eat them -- naturally my fingers get grease on them. Also, I don't know whether that person has washed his or her hands or not. So, what's a polite way to refuse to shake with someone? I don't want to be rude. I try not to bother people when they're eating because I believe that is a private time. -- ARKANSAS DINER
DEAR DINER: All you have to say is, "I'd love to shake hands, but mine are greasy." That's not rude; it's considerate -- and the person will probably thank you.
I know it’s a private time that you want to do something freely. You can refuse to shake hands with someone. I think if you use that sentence, there are no people who think that you are rude.

DEAR ABBY: I have no contact with my mother for many reasons. It was difficult to sever the relationship, but after my son was born -- for his safety and well-being -- I felt I had no choice.
My mother has seen my son once, when he was 6 months old. She had just been released from jail and arrived at my home stoned and out of it. I made sure she found a safe way home and haven't spoken to her since.
My son will be 3 soon. Yesterday we were talking about families and he asked, "You don't have a mommy?" I replied, "Yes, I do. Her name is Cindy." Thankfully, he left it at that. But it started me thinking about what I should say when he asks me questions about his grandmother. I had planned on talking to him when he was older because addictions can run in families, and I want him to be aware of it when making choices in his teen and later years. What do you tell a 3-year-old who wonders who his grandma is? -- OUT OF ANSWERS IN WISCONSIN
DEAR OUT OF ANSWERS: You have already started the dialogue. When your son wants to know why Grandma Cindy doesn't visit, that will be the time you tell him she can't be around because she's sick and isn't able to be. As your son grows older, continue to answer his questions honestly and in an age-appropriate way.
I think so. If he is too young, he will not understand it. You should tell him something that he can get such as she is too old and she can’t come to visit us. It’s enough for him. And when he grows older, you can tell everything to him and he will understand it.

So, teachers who create an English camp have to realize how to put on a successful English camp. There are many parts such as ice breaker, game, song activity and time which we have to create for students.
11. Ice breaker
Ice breaker is the first station where all students must be there together. The responsibilities of ice breaker are to break down social barriers and help students to relax. It can help students learn English freely. It must create a positive group atmosphere which can make them do many activities with their friends happily. Moreover, ice breaker activity has to energize and motivation students’ learning. It can be a helper that enhances them to learn. Furthermore, teachers who are ice breaker have to suggest that what kinds of station that all students must get to know. Ice breaker is very important for English camp.
When we put on an English camp, ice breaker has to prepare activities, songs and games. We must have an ice breaker’s leader who operates and organizes about our activities and steps to do them. Leader will be a director who provides and suggest work to colleagues. Ice breaker must have one or two singers, four to five dancers. Both of them have to expert to entertain students. Because of some students who join in camp may be afraid with new learning activity. If students are relaxed and fun, they will need to do activities and it is easy to control them. Moreover, ice breaker should has some games which can motivate students well. It is to prepare students for learning English. Games can be a good way to relate between friends. We can use game to divide students before going to each station. Furthermore, ice breaker has to describe the theme of each station to students. They can think about each station before and plan to do each activity. Teachers who are not ice breaker should look after students closely. It will be beneficial for controlling them. Ice breaker is very important in English camp. If we prepare to do each step well, English camp will be successful too.
2. Game
According to Stephen Krashen, the students with high motivation, self-confidence, a good self-image, and a low level of anxiety are better equipped for success in language acquisition. Games can make them happily when they learn English, because it can be a good helper that encourages students to sustain their interest and work. Students can acquire language easily. Moreover, students will be relaxed during camp. They must provide language practice in the various skills such as speaking, writing, listening and reading. When using games in English camp, students must be able to gain a wide knowledge. Each game in each station must be different and various, because students want to learn a new thing. We can adapt game to teach speaking, vocabulary, culture or environment.
Before designing game in English camp, we have to set the goals of the game, such as in English speaking station. For example, students are able to tell their own information. So, we have to create the game that can support our goal. The game which we use in English camp must be more than just fun. It should give learners a good chance to learn, practice or review language effectively. Furthermore, we should use game to encourage learners to focus on the use of language. We should remember that game have to involve "friendly" competition and keep all of the students involved and interested. It is important parts that can help students learn language happily.
There are many kinds of game that are beneficial for students to practice their English skills such as Charades, Crossword, Bingo, Hangman, Scramble, and so on. Furthermore, we can choose several games that can serve our objectives. Some games are suitable for all levels because we can adapt them for each level. For example, if we teach students in elementary level, we should create basic vocabulary. It’s very important that we have to consider the level of students.
3. Song
When we put on English camp, you have to be very creative in ways to keep students’ interests. There are different tools to teach conversation, vocabulary, culture, environment, and concepts in English camp. Using song is one of the tools that you can use to teach English in camp. Music is a tie that binds all cultures and languages and it is one of the best ways to make learning English fun. Before we use song in English, we have to organize steps to do it. We must access the age and English language skill level of students. This will determine not only what songs we use, but also what games or activities that we will use in English camp. If they are young students, we have to use songs that are repetitive and easy to understand. For example, the songs that we teach young students should have basic English language. We can use vocabulary word forms, fill in the blank forms, and sing along. They can stand up and use total physical response to understand the words easily in the song.
4. Activity
There are many activities that we can use in English camp. Each activity must be useful and fun for students. We should divide the theme of stations and they must be different such as speaking, culture, vocabulary and environment. Then we have to response our work. When we know what is our theme, we can go ahead to find the appropriate activity. The activities should have a good chance for students to learn English. Activities must be the main thing of station. Activity in each station must relate with the theme of station. It will be an indicator to tell what content that students will gain from each station. We should create activity that students can have an achievement. Students will be proud and when they come back home, they can bring it to their parents. Furthermore, students can memorize what they have learned. A good activity should enhance students’ communication between teachers and their friends. When we choose the activities, we have to realize the appropriation of activity and students’ knowledge.
5. Time
Time is the one of the important things that supports English camp become to a successful camp. We have to divide time for doing each activity. When we organize time in English camp, we have to think about students’ age, because of students’ interests in each level are not same. For example, the young students have short concentration when they learn. They want to play and relax themselves. We should use short time to teach them in each station. After students register their name, we have to bring them into ice breaker activity and we should use long time to do the activity. After ice breaker activity, we have to take them to each station. Each group must go to each station. Chaperones have to co-operate to move students go to the station and change it. We should spare time for moving to other stations. In each station, we must divide time for introduction, song, game and activity appropriately. Furthermore, we have to have time for breaking. After meals, we have to do song and game before doing new activity. If we have some mistakes about time, we can dissolve them as the show must go on. So, a good time management is very necessary for English camp.
English camp will be successful, if we receive co-operation from everyone. Camp management is very essential. We can use many materials and methods when we teach students in English camp. Games, songs and activities can help students to acquire language. We have to realize that the benefit of students is the most important. Then we can create a successful English camp.
