فِي مُسَوَّدَتِي الأُولَى نَسِيتُ أَنْ أُعْطِيَ رَأْيِي، وَلَمْ أَسْتَخْدِمْ إِلَّا زَمَنًا وَاحِدًا. أَمَّا الآنَ فَأُضِيفُ رَأْيِي بِوُضُوحٍ: أَرَى أَنَّ الأَنْشِطَةَ المَدْرَسِيَّةَ مُهِمَّةٌ لِأَنَّهَا تُنَمِّي المَهَارَاتِ. وَلَوْ شَارَكَ كُلُّ طَالِبٍ، لَاسْتَفَادَ الجَمِيعُ. كَمَا أَكَّدَ مُعَلِّمُنَا أَنَّ المُشَارَكَةَ تَبْنِي الثِّقَةَ. وَفِي المُسْتَقْبَلِ سَأَنْضَمُّ إِلَى نَادٍ جَدِيدٍ. هٰكَذَا أَصْبَحَتْ إِجَابَتِي أَكْثَرَ اكْتِمَالًا وَتَنَوُّعًا.
