My independent service learning:

After I completed my service learning I was glad that it was over. We had to complete 15 hours and for them I did street clean up, decorating, clean up a house and ect. So independent service learning is over until next year and then I will try to complete more hours. I just it is good to do service learning because you are helping people in need.

Reflection: Thursday

On Thursday we all start to gather the names of book publishers that we would like to write letters to so the can donate book to our school. So we just went on different web sires to find the different types of book and the publisher’s names so we can have books the children would like to read. I also found a list of the names of publishers from a-z.
