Before the students begin their final project, they first select it from a list of five choices. Then they outline their "timeline" for the following three days, including assigning any necessary homework. The students reported thoroughly enjoying the process of planning and independently deciding how to break apart and tackle their assignment. I was thrilled by how hard they worked on their projects, and while their final products are wonderful and show how carefully they reflected on the book, I think the process of successfully working through an independent project was even more rewarding.
