What did I learn?
Knowledge & Skills: List challenges you encountered, and what you learned from them for future 4-H story ideas. From everything we
do, we learn something, sometimes it is that we don’t ever want to do that again and sometimes it is the unexpected like you made a
friend or you found out you like a project in a related area.
I learned to: List what you learned this year related to your project area that was not listed as a goal.
Examples: that unsalted REAL butter works better for our cookies than margarine.

My memories: List things that made you stop and think, or things that you didn’t realize could be a problem or a joy from doing this
project.
Example memories: One time we started out making peanut butter cookies but ended up making oatmeal because we go the recipes
mixed up. But they turned out ok – things you would like remember later down the road when you look through your 4-H career.
