A couple weeks ago we talked about the Personal Enrichment Projects you can work on in order to earn some fun rewards. THESE ARE COMPLETELY OPTIONAL! However, the work you do to earn these awards will greatly enhance and enrich your learning experience, and hopefully your life, as you come to understand and appreciate the this mindblowingly beautiful and complex world God has created for us.
(WbN Mentors reserve the right to add award options to this list as we find cooler stuff out there. Also, all awards on this blog post are subject to availability. If you earn one of these awards and it is no longer available, we’ll let you know so you can choose a different one.)
For a list of requirements for each award level, please visit the previous blog post Personal Enrichment Projects. Please, PLEASE, contact us if you have any questions or have fun ideas for your personalized projects. We are VERY open to suggestions! The list of ideas we’ve provided is only the beginning of possible options out there.
