Buddy TAG and Roots

The next step in our writing process is something we call Buddy TAG (a peer editing step).  Ask your daughters how Buddy TAG works!  I was impressed with how the girls were able to give and receive constructive criticism and edit their stories after suggestions from their peers.

In science, we finished up our experiment on different roots.  The girls went outside and had to pull up grass from the ground to compare the roots to those of the beet, scallion, and carrot.  The girls had a great time learning why roots are all different.

For the past two days, the girls have enjoyed viewing and learning some of the traditions of Bryn Mawr, including Gym Drill and Maypole.  Hopefully the weather will hold out for Saturday so the girls can enjoy the real deal!
