LOOKING BACK
Use this page to summarize your year in the Cat Project. Here are some examples of things you might want to include:
Did you meet the goals that you set for yourself? What skills have you learned? How will you use this knowledge in the
future? Was there anything that was harder to accomplish than you thought it would be? Describe any leadership roles
you might have had and what you taught others. What were your favorite activities?
I have reviewed this record with the project member and believe it to be correct.
