- Through the Looking-Glass: A brief plot summary of the Disney film that it’s been discussed.
- Musical Magic: Without any doubts, songs and music are the jewels in Disney films’ crown! We love them, and no matter the age we have, we find ourselves singing them every now or then.
- Fun Facts: Learn about the deepest and most interesting secrets each Disney movie is hiding!

Quill Requirements
You decide which movies to study and which not, meaning that you also decide what assignments to do or not do. But in order to pass this class and earn a quill I’m only asking you to earn at least 180 points, and one portion of those points should come from the final exam, which means that the exam is a MUST.
You can work at your own pace! You decide if you turn in your assignments in a monthly basis or by the end of term. Whichever you choose, just keep in mind that the final due date to submit all of your work is JANUARY 15th, 2024
