KoKo, ever the artist, had the assignment of creating a brochure focusing on the rainforest. It was due on a Tuesday. She began working on it the previous Friday!
Initially, she put about an hour into designing the cover and stenceling and coloring the artwork before discarding it.
Her second attempt was successful. But then she discovered that she drew the cover in the middle of brochure (she drew it on a normal, blank sheet of paper, but it would eventually have to be folded into thirds for the brochure) and had to scrap that one.
Finally, on Saturday, she got the design that she was happy with down and got it on the correct third of the brochure. Then she wrote in all the required information. However, when adding extra color, it became a bit blurry. So she decided to type the information up and tape it over the messy handwriting. This continued on through Sunday and into Monday evening.
Of course, the assignment was probably only worth a meager 15 or 20 points, but the assignment tapped into KoKo's love for art (it didn't hurt that boy in her class challenged her by stating that he was going to prove that he was a better artist than KoKo. THAT lit a fire under her!). I need to remember that with my own classes and assignments.
