When students from the Friday middle school class at Calhoun wanted to create an animated film for their science project, how could we say no?
Students created informative scripts, built some pretty anatomically correct puppets,recorded narration, and then got animating!
Learning about the paramecium, the euglenoid, dinoflagellates, and truffles has never been so engaging!
Nice work, Romi, Nicholas, and Anna!

We are looking forward to our next session at St. Hilda's in Spring 2012. In the meantime, check out all of the student's hard work!
