‘Me Project’

You are to complete a project about yourself.  The purpose of this project is to give me a little insight about you – what you like to do both inside and outside school as well as finding out what aspirations you have.  I will obviously be looking at your writing style as well – how you portray your feelings and thoughts onto paper.

Your project may be typed or hand written and must take the form of a bound project.

You should have the following information:

·      My family…
·      The best thing about me is…
·      What I’d most like to have is…
·      Lately I learned…
·      One thing I’d like you to know about me is…
·      The best present I ever received was…
·      The most dangerous thing I have ever done is…
·      If I could be anyone in the world it would be…
·      One goal I have for the future

For each of the above questions, I would be expecting at least half a page of typed information (size 14) or three quarters of a page hand written.

Make sure you look at the ‘guiding information’ sheet attached, this will give you an outline on how to gain a score within the higher range.

You will have access to our three computers and printers within the classroom if you wish along with other computers in the library after school time. Due date for your project is FRIDAY 12th April, 2.45pm  (week10) You may obviously hand it in earlier if you wish.
