Description:
Students explore the concepts of economic decision-making and supply and demand through this service-learning project. Depending on the contents of the collection, schools could support charities such as the Salvation Army, Goodwill, Bea Gaddy (in Baltimore), the Learn Shop (Montgomery County), Purple Heart, AmVets, homeless shelters, or other local organizations.
Given the many options and the flexibility built into this service-learning project, it is hoped there will be few problems identifying appropriate service-learning opportunities within this framework for students receiving special education services, similar to their nondisabled peers.
