Off the Top of My Head, School Reports I Remember Doing


  1. Tchaikovsky (It was covered in a translucent blue report cover I bought at the 5 and Dime was quite proud of)
  2. The Great Pyramid (It was The big Sixth Grade Oral Presentation complete with illustrations. Like an idiot, I woke up late that day and threw on a a pale yellow hand-me-down hoodie which read "Slippery When Wet")
  3. Evonne Goolagong ( This was a book report, --we had a weekly reading contest called "Individualized Reading" and I was disappointed to find that the title was simply about a broad tennis player with a weird name and not about a new computer game like Blip or whatnot. I made a lame diorama with Evonne playing tennis. A serious layup.)
  4. Whales (Included clay whale I sculpted and painted blue)
  5. Amelia Earheart (Included jointed wooden puppet on a stick I made--with assistance--of her likeness with removable clothing and painted face)

Holy crap - a wooden puppet complete with clothing? You better have recieved an A+ based on that alone.
