Do Your Own Thing

This project is designed for youth in grades 8-12 to explore a topic of their own design. Usually the project selected is one that is not included in existing project material in the North Dakota 4-H program, or is one in which you need to challenge yourself to specialize or create more depth in learning in a project area.

The Do Your Own Thing project allows you to determine your areas of interest and plan the activities you wish to conduct over the course of the project year. Completing this project demonstrates that you are responsible for selecting a topic, determining  goals, obtaining resources, and designing a method to evaluate the accomplishment of your goals. All individualized learning plans need to be approved by a parent or other adult 4-H leader. The success of the project depends on your initiative. This project provides an opportunity - not a "catch all." You complete a project plan for each project you undertake. Exhibit areas may be limited.
