7th and 8th Graders on Religious Education

Image source

One of the catechists who teaches 7th and 8th graders in my parish asked his students last week to submit on an index card one thing they've learned in class this year and one thing they'd like to learn more about.  

I found the responses interesting and revealing (as did the catechist) and thought you might be interested, too.
