text: The third and final reason why it's better to have the teachers design summer projects is because the teacher is the only person that could properly introduce the subject. In the beginning of each year, teachers inform their students on how the class would run and how the assignments would be graded. I'd say all the teachers that I have had over the years but one, have properly introduced how the class would run and how the work would be presented. I had a history teacher in seventh grade that had an accent that I couldn't quite understand and I was clueless about where she might have been from. The first day of school was going well until I got to history, I had no idea what she was saying, she seemed very disorganized, and she was always forgetting what she wanted to get to for class. She wasn't very clear on how the work was going to be graded and she would have us take our own notes, which I don't mind but it didn't help that I couldn't understand her. I went the entire year guessing what she was saying and worried about what type of assignments i'd be getting.
