text: In addition, day by day students learn something new. Other than working on their chores; they have time to go outdoors and explore new things during their summer break. Exploring helps you gather new ideas. Student-designed summer projects would be amazing because they could express what they have learned during their summer break. For instance, in 2019, I traveled to my parents birth country, Cuba. I had experienced something new. As a city girl, I had never seen an animal giving birth; in Cuba, I saw a cow giving birth; that was my first time seeing such thing. My grandfather had taught me the entire process. Another example, in 2018, I had turned fifteen years old; therefore during the summer I was able to take my learner's permit test. I went to take the test during the summer and fail it. I failed it because I did not take the time to study and thought I knew everything. I was wrong. In life you learn new things day by day. You should not do things in a rush; patience is important. When you learn new things it is also important to share with classmates and teachers because they can learn from it too.
