[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do they even have this silly requirement in middle school?[/quote] Because children learn skills they'll need as adults from it. Kind of like the silly requirement that they read and write and do math. [/quote] Oh please. Reading + math are not at the same level as volunteering.[/quote] Service Learning isn't volunteering. We've established that. It's an opportunity for children to be in an environment where people are working and learn about the world of work. It teaches important skills. [/quote] I don’t think we’ve established that. Service learning can definitely be volunteering. [/quote] If you are compelled to do something, it is not volunteering [/quote]
