Yes, We are Finally Back! Somerset- Week 2


International Ivy at Somerset is back! The sun is shining and the classes are running! A lot of fun is happening right here and it is only day one! We have AdventureQuest Games in the morning, followed by Web Design and Youngster WeDo Robotics in the afternoon. The best part is that we have already made some friends in our classes.  Also, we are gearing up for WET DAY tomorrow! That's right - dunk tank, water balloons, and water shooters! We are thrilled! Take a look below at just a glimpse into our week.

Our Campers are going GAGA for Princeton Week 2

Week TWO may be a shorter week due to the 4th of July but our campers are wasting no time making friends and diving into their classes! Mobile App Design has six amazing kids here for full days and Creative Writing Workshop has three wonderful campers here in the afternoon!

Right from Tuesday morning our Mobile App campers were becoming "best friends" as they said at break! By the end of morning session that had all assigned one another clever nicknames and had inside jokes.

O! O! O! We know the answer!! Pick Me!

Creative Writing Workshop began our week discussing metaphors and sharing our heart maps -- signaling the most important things within our hearts and our fears / dislikes on the outside. We use these maps to brainstorm and draw inspiration for our short stories.

Morning and afternoon break consist of campers going GAGA over the game Gaga Ball! It has been a fan favorite all week any time the weather has been nice.
