At this point, you should:

  • procured a binder to be used only for your FRP project
  • have your parent/s/guardians sign the FRP parent letter
  • read over the topic list and highlighted THREE possible choices.
  • gotten your hands on a stack of notecards--all of the same size.

Reminders:
  • no more than 2 people in each class may do the same topic
  • you should be working on this project a minimum of 30 minutes outside class, every day.
Tonight, you will
