Princeton Week 1,our wacky week comes to an end!

Hard to believe that Week ONE is already over, that flew by! Our campers got really into their stock market portfolios, trying to see who could earn the most money (and beat teacher Nicole!)!



Brain Training continued to flex their brain muscles with games, challenges, and brain teasers!








Our campers spent a great week together, we had wonderful weather and amazing company!


On Friday campers shared with each other a little bit about what they had learned during their session!



Our camera shy campers in Brain Training preferred to share without the pressure of being filmed, so parents ask them to tell you at home!!



Thank you campers for a wonderful week here in Princeton! We hope to see you again soon!

Happy Friday!


Week 1 went by so fast! :(  But the campers in Scotch Plains had a lot of fun and learned so much while they were here!  Their parents even came in today to see what they accomplished all week in Minecraft, Video Game Creation, and Robotics!








                                   

A Nature Scavenger Hunt @ Far Hills

Good afternoon, and welcome back to International Ivy Far Hills.  This week we had a special group of Youngster's learn about nature.  Once a day they would walk around the campus outside with their cameras and curiosity in tow to see the beautiful environment around them.  On Friday, the group of children along with their teacher came up with a list of animals and bugs they would need to find all on their last walk.  The children picked their favorite animals, picked the pictures, and formatted the page.

Before the children went outside, they developed their own plan of execution.  They decided to visit the Butterfly Garden first where they hoped to cross many creatures off their list.  After that, they went to the creek.  While they didn't finish the entire list today, they had a great time trying.  Here are some pictures of our little explores.  We are very proud of them.

Week One at Chatham

Greetings from Chatham!


This week has flown by!  It has been great to see both returning and brand new campers have such an amazing week.  

Today we had some exciting break times.  This morning we played a kickball tournament for ivy points and to continue working on team building skills.  



During the afternoon break time we were able to enjoy the gorgeous weather to buy lemonade from out Lemonade Stand class.  All of the students were able to discuss the future businesses that they want to start and how this class has helped them.  


In order to see some more pictures of all the great things our campers have done this week, please visit our flickr account here.  Happy camping!
