Quick Pix As always, it has been a busy week at Carolina Day. Many of the younger grades made special note of the 100th day of school by participating in all kinds of learning activities. The first grade celebrated by making 100-piece puzzles, estimating the distance of 100 feet and then actually measuring, counting out 100 items and gluing them to paper in a design, writing in their journals about what they would do with $100, and graphing the colors of 100 jellybeans. By the way, they got to eat the jellybeans.
This week was spirit week in the Upper School to help inspire the basketball teams to victory. The pep band was on hand during the varsity boys' game to rev up the crowd.
AP U.S. History students came together to discuss world events from different eras at a recent "tea." Each student was given the name of an historical person to research. Then on the day of the social event they gathered together dress as their person and discussed things from that point of view. Guests at the tea party included: Eugene Debs and Boss Tweed
Carrie Nation and Thomas Edison
Chief Joseph and Hetty Green
Carrie Nation, Jane Adams, Ida Tarbell, Dorothea Dix, and Elizabeth Cady Stanton
Jacob Riis, Tom Watson, and Emma Goldman
Frances Willard, Samuel Gompers, and Chief Joseph
Kate Chopin and Andrew Carnegie
J. P. Morgan, Edward Bellamy, and William Sumner
Susan Anthony and Samuel Gompers
And is it Friday yet? This eighth grader (Emerson) decided to try a new hairdo during one of those upper school basketball games this week. Actually, it probably took all three games to finish this new look. Charlene was the stylist.
