text: Assigning a project to a kid during the two and a half month break they get is something that needs to be handled very carefully. Learning is very important and having the project is a good idea. The students must be able to choose exactly what they want to do. This will keep them interested in the project which will make all the grades of the projects go up compared to if it was a topic they have no interest in. The students will use more of their time to perfect the project instead of waiting until the last weekend and just turning it in because they do not care about the topic and do not want to waste their time on something that has no impact on their future as soon as they finish the next test they have on the topic. Allowing the students to pick and choose their topic will help them learn about their team, person, idea, etc. without making them feel the stress and anxiety of a teacher assigned school project.
