Have a little look at Jin Hee's wonderful 3D model creation for her 'Holes Extra Credit Work'. It is fantastic!
The extra credit work was a chance for students to choose tasks to complete from a wide range of options, including performance, music, drama, writing, film & media, song, artwork, creative poetry and mathematical.
Jin Hee managed to capture complete understanding of the novel through this model.
Well done, Jin Hee!
