Film Class - She was required to watch specific films and write papers about them. Some of them included "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", "North by Northwest" and "The Court Jester". It was fun for John and I as well, since we watched these movies with her. We got the easy part since we did not have to write the paper afterward. Danny Kaye was fabulous in the Court Jester - here is a clip (hope it works!)

In her Pre-Calculas class they did a project on Tessellations, which is the process of creating a two-dimensional plane using the repetition of a geometric shape with no overlaps and no gaps. The hardest part for my little artist was deciding what shape she would do. She picked the Iron Man mask and then spent a number of days using water color pencils to complete the assignment.
