text: Overall, if a student is allowed the choice of topic for their summer project it would be better off for all parties. the students are more likely to do their project because it is something they want to do. Teachers would not be putting as many zeros in their grade book to start the year off. There would be an upsurge in the amount of effort students would be putting into their work. Teachers would also get to know their students in reading their summer projects and could use the information they learned about the student to better their schooling that year. All in all having a student choose the topic of their summer project would be a very positive aspect to a long timed disliked project. Dear Principal,
