Students took a quiz over the handouts on the beginnings of cinema.

The quiz proved difficult, and Mr. Potratz agreed not to count it, except to give all those with scores above a certain number (TBD) a small amount of extra credit.

We discussed briefly the history covered by the quiz, then proceeded to watch images by Eadweard Muybridge, Edison's famous May-Rice Kiss, and several other early "actualities."
