text: I can also understand the teachers perspective, they want the kids to learn more over the summer and be prepared for the next year so they assign projects that will help them and expect it to be finished. They want to help the students meet their goals and expect them to set high expectations for themselves, but when a student realizes the work given over the summer is just like any other classwork they will set it aside. If teachers are able to make a project that is fun and can be beneficial to learning, teenagers or kids will do it and will be more prepared when the next year comes.
