Service Learning

The places I have chosen to do community service at a library, a pre-school, after school

program, or a museum. I want to really volunter at a pre-school and a museum. THe reasons

why is cause I love to work with young kids. I always wanted to work at a museum cause every

one has a story to tell. I liked the idea service learning cause we get to learn from many things. I

never heard of service learning and this is my first time being apart this. Service Learning should

be a good experince.

Never

Never will I love you again

Never will I be with you

Never will I hug you

Never will I kiss your lips

Never will I whisper in your ear softly

Never will I hold you close to to me

Never will I comfort you when you need it

Never will I will cry over you again

Never will I miss being with you

Never will I be hurt by the pain you have cause me

Never will I be haunted by you and the relationship we had.

Never say Never!!!!

My NHD Reflection

My NHD experience was very stressful. It was easy and diffcult! It was fun putting the project together but i did have some trouble. Though I got through it. My topic was poetry! I found a poem by a woman named Isabella Oliver who said that she thought that slaveowners were wrong for using the bible to justify slavery. I thought it was a very interesting topic ! I learned a lot from my NHD experience so I will do better next time and have my stuff on time!!
