text: Many students either get left behind a grade, have to do summer school, drop out, or just barely pass and end up going into summer not knowing any of the material their teacher has tried to teach them. Things they should've previously been learning would seem new to them. As a student I will admit that some of the material is quite confusing at times. If you pay attention, study, and do your class/homework , it gets way easier. Projects are designed to help teachers grade the student on how well they know material or a subject. Projects help the teacher get a better understanding of what the child may need help with in order to get better at the subject and/or to pass their upcoming Standards Of Learning test.
