Patch Whiz Kid of the Week: Renee Verdi
Meet Haverford-Havertown Patch's Whiz Kid of the week Renee Verdi, who is being recognized for her excellent work on a recent Language Arts project.
Haverford-Havertown Patch is seeking suggestions from readers for
individual kids, youth groups, teens, and even sports teams that wow us with their accomplishments. This week, we highlight seventh-grade student Renee Verdi who did excellent work in a recent Language Arts project.
Renee participated in a Language Arts assignment in Jason Finn's class. The assignment was to boil a fairytale down to five freeze frames. Jason Finn would turn out the lights and the team would do a freeze frame. He would then turn the light on to see the frame and so on for all five frames. The project was called Lights On/Lights Off.
