This week Mrs. Mindicino's Freshman Honors classes delivered their final presentations: Romeo and Juliet film adaptation. After watching two versions of Romeo and Juliet (Zeffirelli and Luhrman), students developed a proposal to present to "investors" in hopes of funding their film. Students developed the setting, costume design, casting, soundtrack, and brand partnerships to market their movies. They worked hard to come up with creative ideas and unique spins on the classic Shakespeare play!

Ms. Palosaari grew up in Palos Verdes and graduated from Palos Verdes Peninsula High School. Growing up, she loved reading, ceramics, baking cookies, running with cross country, and camping with her family during the summer at the beautiful National Parks in the US! Fun Fact – she has been to 34 national parks out of the current 61 in the United States and plans on visiting them all! Ms. Palosaari went on to San Diego State University, where she graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree is both Mathematics and English. Loving San Diego, she stayed to get her Teaching Credential at San Diego State University as well. Finally, she came back to the South Bay to begin her childhood dream of being a teacher, and went on to get her Master of Science Degree in Mathematics from Cal State Long Beach. During quarantine, she made a new cupcake every week, and found a new love for cooking recipes by her favorite food blogger, Half Baked Harvest! |
