=Step 3: On the final TCL day, reflect on each standard and goal you set for yourself. How did you do and why?=

Reflection: For this goal I have the students working on an ABC book. They were each given a state and they can find different facts that they find interesting about the state to go with each letter of the alphabet. This project started out as a challenge because they wanted to know exactly what they had to find. Once they realized that they were looking for the information about the state and I was not selecting the information the project has been going smooth. They are finding some very interesting facts about the state they were assigned that classmates probably do not already know.
