Setting goals, measuring progress and growth, and reflecting on failures and successes are a part of the 4-H project experience. Keeping a record of annual experiences is done through a 4-H Portfolio. Adult volunteers may remember them as being called project “record books”. Today they expand on the club learning experiences including leadership and citizenship. To access, and for details, go here- 4-H Portfolio.
