Proposal+Form,+surfing

Craven County Schools NCGP Proposal This form must be submitted and approved by the parent/guardian and the school Graduation Project Committee before extensive research begins. I plan to research the history, physics and tips of surfing so that I can become a good beginner surfer. My driving question is “What is the history and physics of surfing and what tips will I need to help me to become a beginner surfer?” The only previous experiences that I have had with surfing are when I have went to the beach with friends and family to practice. I plan on taking a surfing lesson and taking pictures and making a video/slideshow to show. Name: Employment: Address: Email: Phone: I have discussed with my parent/guardian the responsibilities associated with the North Carolina Graduation Project. My parents/guardians are aware that this will require work outside the school setting. Also, they are aware that I will be working on a research paper, project, portfolio, and presentation over the course of my high school years. _____________________________ ________________________ Parent/Guardian Signature and Date Student Signature and Date ______________________________ Committee Member Signature and Date // Form adapted from the 2007 NC Graduation Project Implementation Guide //
