Transcending Borders at Riverstone.
Today, before starting work on our projects we decided to try another
art project in honor of our unit on transcending borders. Our
classmates and colleagues toured Amsterdam yesterday. Today, we
attempted to recreate Vermeer’s “Girl with a Pearl Earring” as a
small way of connecting with their experiences in the Netherlands.
We think the results are pretty true to the original. We also
enjoyed some Belgian almond cookies and French ecoliers. Everybody
is now hard at work – pouring over rubrics, staging scenes, producing
video reflections on their projects and other sundry tasks. All are
in high spirits and wish everyone well.
