Cast of Characters at Somerset - Week 7

Today's Theme Thursday at Somerset was Character Day! Students came to camp dressed up as their favorite character. We had a lot of creative characters here, such as Tinker Belle, Superman, and Minnie Mouse. During break, we played Sharks and Minnows as a team and had a blast. Thanks for attending International Ivy Somerset this summer! We sure hope to see you again for Summer 2018!!

Sensational week Seven @ Princeton

International Ivy @ Princeton is all about the P's this week

Our last week of summer camp at Princeton is underway. While we're sad to see the summer winding down to the end, from Public Speaking to Pre-Law and Python programming to Plays (in film class), we're ending our summer having fun!

I had a Dream and Watermelone' was the Theme! Oakland week 7!

This week in Oakland we have been having a variety of fun with Lemonade Stand, Film Making, Robotics Level 1 Animals, and Stop Action Animation!

Lemonade stand has been working hard to create their own flavors of lemonade and learning how to market and sell their product to others. They talk about the cost of business and how to turn a profit all while enjoying a delicious glass of lemonade.

Robotics are working hard to put their building skills to the test to build a wide variety of lego-based animals.

Film-Making and Stop Action Animation are working towards creating their own movies and stories and displaying them for the world to see :]

All for nothing, it's been a great week here in Oakland and we can't wait to see what each student creates!

Learning Leadership Skills - Somerset Week 7

Students taking AdventureQuest Leadership Games are developing important skills such as communication, team building, and problem solving. Our students spend their time playing different leadership games as a team, such as building a rollercoaster! While it is not always easy working together, our students are learning what it means to be a team player in order to achieve their goals. Take a look at the fun that has been happening in class this week!

Party in 3D

Creatures, buildings, and fidget spinners, oh my! The creative juices are flowing here at Scotch Plains this week in our 3D printing classes!
