Project Record Books

The philosophy of 4-H Project Record Books is to teach youth the important life skill of how to keep records. Record keeping is an ongoing process that does continues through adult life. Youth are encouraged to select from a variety of alternatives to meet their individual record keeping needs and learning styles.

The objective is for 4-Hers to learn how to set goals, how to make plans for action, and how to decide how well you did (evaluation). This program teaches the skills of record keeping and organization to use now and in the future. It helps them learn to communicate, summarize, responsibility for completing a task and to evaluate information that will market personal skills through future resumes and application forms. This program helps reflect the 4-Her’s goals, accomplishments, and future plans.
