Andrew had to create a Quadarama for his English class. You had to create scenes from 4 different time frames from any book that you have read that trimester. You had to make backgrounds, people (totally handmade), and flooring. Then on the bottom of the project were paragraphs describing what was happening in the scenes (not shown). Andrew made everything himself, I just helped with some of gluing. Crazy glue and the hot glue gun can be quite messy. Not one of us (Ken, Andrew, and I) are very artistic when it comes to drawing or making things, but I thought it turned out pretty nice. Now what this teaches them about English – I have no clue. Some of the stuff the school has these kids do is a waste of time. Not to mention the money that you have to spend on creating the projects. Andrew said his was a lot bigger than many of the ones that kids turned in. I wish I could have seen some more of them.
