Going beyond

Every 9 weeks Matts has to complete a GBR or "Going Beyond Requirement" for his target class. Their first unit has been "Stepping into Target" aka fairy tales 101. You can only imagine how Matts feels about this. Luckily, there are very few specific requirements and there is an emphasis on initiative and creativity. Here's what he (and Reed) turned out:

Princess Kylie in the dungeon, guarded by the evil Lord Hiss
Quite pleased
Prince Superkid with his Meerkat and Komodo dragon legions
The finished product
You've got to give the kid credit. He managed to incorporate his "incession" with armies, legos, snakes, komondo dragons, meerkats and superkid into a project on fairy tales. If that doesn't demonstrate creativity I don't know what does.
