Enrichment Opportunities
In addition to enrichment opportunities that are related to our projects (located on the Projects Page), there are some enrichment opportunities that are ALWAYS available to you. If you feel like you need to boost your grade, or you want to learn more about a topic we are studying, you might consider one of these:

1. Article Summary Guide. Find a news article related to a topic we are studying. Complete the Article Summary Guide (which has several steps--you must do them all), attach to the article, and turn it in!

2. Book Reviews. Do an extra book review of a book that you are reading. Follow the book review format that we discussed in class.

3. DP Peer Tutoring. If you think you are particularly good at DPs and project reflections, let me know if you would like to work with a classmate who needs extra support with their DP. We can set up a time for you two to work together.
