A WEEK OF CELEBRATION !

We had fun during Founders Week. 

We learned about the five women who found Bryn Mawr.

We had a wonderful tea party pretending to be a founder.

Ask me which founder I was!

Our Tea Party

 We loved being founders who gathered 

to talk about making a new school 

where girls could learn anything they wanted to!

Drawing pictures of the five founders in our storybooks. 

We learned how different they looked long ago. 

We went on a journey to see important people and find the Bryn Mawr Seal.

Visiting the portrait of Miss Edith Hamilton. 

She was first head Mistress of Bryn Mawr.

We each told her what we want to learn!

We had great ideas, reading, science, math

and all about butterflies!

We had a fun visit with Ms. Maureen Walsh. 

She is the Head of Bryn Mawr School.  

Our visit to Ms. Walsh was on 

Spirit Day.

She could tell how much spirit we had!

Sharing delicious daisy cupcakes made by 

Caroline's Mommy to celebrate fall birthdays. 

                                    Memories from our first fun Spirit Day!

                                     Carrots, crackers, celery and cream cheese make the
                                                       BEST  BRYN MAWR DAISIES!
                                                           

                                                          Waiting and observing each day.
                                                               Each  caterpillar is now a
                                                                          chrysalis!

                                                             

Acting out the stages of a Butterfly. 

                                                                         


                                       Making the egg, caterpillar and chewed milk weed leaf.

                                       Finding more milkweed for those hungry caterpillars!

                                   

                                   We love being scientists, recording what we observe and recording                                                                            what happened to our caterpillars.

                                                                  We are waiting for
                                                        metamorphosis
                                                                              and
                          Mrs. Mawhiney's baby
                                                          We are so excited!

                                     

Technology in the Creation Station

During Technology in the Creation Station, the girls have been busy learning the rules and routines and iPad basics like, turning on the iPad, locking the iPad, taking a picture and opening and closing apps.  We have also worked in two different apps.  The first app we learned was Little Writer.  The second app we learned was PicCollage.  In PicCollage we have added several pictures to our fall collage.  We have just started the app MyStory.  We will be creating an ABC book throughout the year.
