text: I find myself enjoying projects more than normal school work because of the control I have over them. If you take away that aspect, there is really no point of doing the project instead of a regular worksheet. Recently we have been given lots of projects in English class that made up for the repeated summer work. We were lucky enough for the new projects to have been mostly student-based and student-taught. The most recent project was a student-teacher assignment. We received a topic and had to come up with a lesson plan to teach the rest of our class. I had to teach about active and passive voice. I taught a short lesson on what it was, and then I gave out a timed worksheet. The first person who finished and got them all correct received a prize. We also got to grade the class on how well they did, like a teacher would. The assignment wasn't necessarily about how well you did teaching, but it was about how well the class took in the information you taught. That project was really enjoyable. It was really creative and way more interesting than if we were given a specific sheet to follow like we would usually get.
