8TH GRADE PROJECTS PAGE

"The year before high school."

This year, in 8th Grade, I believe that I excelled in Persistence. I choose this quality as the quality I excelled and grew in because out of all of the qualities, I grew in Persistence the most in total. Not only did I grow in classes like U.S. History and Language Arts, but I grew in Persistence in every class. For example, I probably grew a little from the Plate Tectonics Project, a little from the Infographic Project, a little bit in my Independent Reading Projects, and that sort of thing. Along with that, I grew a lot in Persistence in almost every project. Speaking of which, I probably grew the most in Persistence this year from the Comicbook Project. I had to work very hard in this project to do well in the project. Now, if there was a quality that I need to grow in, it would be Inquiry. I can remember multiple assignments in the pass where we were supposed to think of questions that I had a challenge doing.

"HOW CAN I INTRODUCE KINDERGARTENERS TO SCIENCE USING A SCIENCE KIT WITHIN A BUDGET?"

Genius Hour Project.

In the Genius Hour Project, we thought of driving questions for us to research and eventually answer. My research question was "How Can I Introduce Kindergarteners To Science Using A Science Kit Within A Budget?"

I don't mean to offend any teacher who was not included as being a good teacher who is a good teacher (so, all of my teachers).
