Which event did you choose for your final assessment? Why did you choose this one?
--> I chose to do the Parallel Bars for my final assessment, because I felt that I had more experience with it, and could complete more of the tricks on it.

For your creative assessment, please describe your 'project' and how well you think you performed it?
--> We never performed our Creative Project, because we moved on to our Softball and Cricket Unit.
