Project Me Assignment

Project Me is a project intended to celebrate student's accomplishments and experiences.

There are 3 different project's your child can chose from.  If you have an older child, you may notice a huge difference in the length.  It has been scaled down to accommodate the shortened length of time spent on the project. Having 3 different options for students to pick from also meets the diverse needs of the students.

(I encourage parent support reminiscing over pictures and memories, but please, limit the amount  of "hands on" you offer your child.)
