text: Often students get confused when assigned projects over the summer one of the main reasons are because they don't understand the topic. By allowing the students to design there own assignments will help them make their project more detailed. For example, a student could take a family vacation out of town once they've arrived back home they could design a detailed poster board of all the historical sites they saw while on vacation. Also, In the summer most kids volunteer and do other stuff around the community a student could type an essay as their summer project about the importance of giving back. During the summer the teacher most likely won't be available to answer any questions, comments, or concerns. If the project is student-designed then there will be no need for the students to reach out to there teachers because they'll have all the information they need because they're creating they're own topic for the project.
