POL-Presentation of Learning. POLs happen twice in the year. One at the end of semester one, and the second at the end of semester two. This is a way to present what I learned during the semester along with strengths and challenges. It is also a good way of checking to see if I met my goals for class. Oh, and by the way, my family gets to be part of the audience.

Exhibition is an event, usually held at school where I have the opportunity to showcase all my hard work for the semester. Family, friends, and visitors get to see what HTMCV is all about. More importantly, I get to present my learning and experience at HTMCV!
