Portfolio+Assignment

I have done this project every year during the first two weeks of school, and this helps the students to introduce themselves to me. A portfolio is a document that describes who a person is. It consists of pictures, work samples, and writings that a person has done in his/her life. This is an IN CLASS PROJECT, and it will be collected everyday before they leave my classroom. They can take home their project on the night before it is due to add any final touches at home. This project is worth one hundred points.
