<h2>Cumulative Cover</h2>
<p>
The cover page of a record book includes the important information that the Extension Office needs to mark that you've actually completed your 4-H year.
The cumulative cover is the boring page that contains the basic info the extension office and record book judges need to know to identify your book.
Add info to the bottom of the list and update your club if needed.
Remember, this page should stay with your book for your entire 4-H career.

The <strong>report year</strong> for 4-H runs from October 1st to September 30th of the following calendar year.
When recording dates in your record book, it is important to mark both years (i.e. 2015-2016) or the month and year (July 2016) so that readers can determine which report the event pertains to.

Well, on <em>that</em> encouraging note, let's talk about the most involved section of a record book.
Every project you are enrolled in needs a separate Section 1 for each year you are enrolled in it.
Section 1 takes up the most time and space in a vetern 4-Her's record book, so we will spend a good deal of time talking about it here.
Over half of your 4-H career is spent working on projects, and fittingly, over half of your record book is spent commemorating those projects.
Section 1 provides a framework for planning, completing, and analysing each of your 4-H projects.
How? Let's go through it step-by-step.

</div>
<div class="panel-body">
When completing a project record for a project carried over from another organization (i.e. a school art project or the Supreme Beef program), the documentation from that organization may fit the criteria for a 4-H project record, and many people choose to submit that documentation as their section 1.
This is acceptable, but the record book committee asks that you respect the judges' time by using the 4-H project record template, and not including extranneous information.

Here's an exercise I want you to try at home.
Before you start a 4-H project, get out a blank sheet of paper.
At the top, write down why you want to be in this project this year.
Then, underneath that write down four or five things you broadly want to acomplish this year in this project.
Then, underneath that write down four or five things you broadly want to accomplish this year in this project.
Now, like any organized and motivated individual, lose the sheet of paper and don't look at it for three months.
If you followed the instructions, you will probably find that you have already made significant progress toward those four or five items you wanted to acomplish.
If so, then take this oportunity to solidify your broad objectives into <strong>GOALS</strong>.

The label &quot;Size &amp; Scope&quot; has caused confusion for several generations of 4-Hers.
Let's define these words to clear that up.
</p>
<dl class="dl-horizontal">
<dt>Size</dt>
<dd>is numbers, i.e. the number of hours spent, dollars invested, contest points earned, pounds of feed, etc.</dd>
<dt>Scope</dt>
<dd>indicates the varieties, different types, recipes, plants or animal breeds with which you worked.</dd>
</dl>
<p>
In short, Size &amp; Scope is a <abbr title="A detailed description including numbers of all substances used. Also the name of a class I'm glad I didn't have to take in college.">quantitative analysis</abbr> of everything you used to complete your project.
Good Size &amp; Scope sections vary widely depending on the project, but all of them record the items (physical or intellectual) used in the project, and the time and money spent on the project.
Take a look at the examples for ideas to get you started.

<div class="panel-body">
<strong>Financial Information</strong> and <strong>Market Summary</strong> tables are provided under Size &amp; Scope.
They are not intended to serve as a full Size &amp; Scope, but they may be useful to augment your existing data.
Use them if you think they are appropriate to your project.

Knowledge &amp; Skills Acquired

<blockquote>
Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
<small>Proverbs 8:10 KJV</small>
</blockquote>
<p>
Knowledge &amp; Skills Acquired serves two purposes.
First, it allows you to address whether or not you met your goals.
Second, it tells readers what you actually learned this year in your project.
</p>
<p>
To complete Knowledge &amp; Skills, create a heading for each <a href="#goals">goal</a> you wrote.
Write a paragraph (at least three sentences) explaining if you met the goal, how you met the goal (or why you did not meet the goal), and what you learned from the goal.
After each goal is addressed, include paragraphs explaining anything else you learned about your project area.
Remember that your readers might not know anything about your project area, so be sure to explain it in a way that a layperson can understand.
