THIS GROUP OF STUDENTS PRESENT A MOST UNUSUAL TRIO OF ARTISTS, PASSIONATE INSECTS.
THE PAINTINGS INCLUDE:
1) BATTLE WITH THE PAINTING
2) LOSS OF FAITH IN THE PAINTING
3) DEATH IN THE PAINTING
THESE ARE NOT YOUR ORDINARY BUGS.

BRINGING A POPULAR FRENCH SONG INTO A MORE LIVELY BEAT, THE STUDENTS REWROTE THE LYRICS TO APPLY TO VENTICELLO. THEY ALSO SANG A SECOND VERSION IN A SOFTER MOOD. IT WAS A REMARKABLE TAPE. I WISH IT COULD BE PLAYED ON THIS SITE.
VENTICELLO WITHOUT A "V"
THE FOLLOWING SEMESTER, DEBORAH, THE FRENCH LANGUAGE INSTRUCTOR ALSO ASSIGNED THESE STUDENTS A PROJECT ON VENTICELLO. SHE TOOK THE RATHER LONG THANK YOU NOTE I'D SENT THE CLASS OF 4ème B, AND HAD THEM REWRITE IT WHILE PRESENTING ME WITH A RIDDLE HIDDEN IN THE TEXT.
THIS WILL ALSO BE UNDER THE VENTICELLO SECTION IN THE FUTURE.
