7.0.4.8. A worksheet cannot answer discuss, tell, show or demonstrate
Required Often forgotten
Completing a worksheet may suffice where a requirement calls for something in writing. It does not suffice where the Scout must discuss, tell, show or demonstrate.
Notes and warnings
Tip. Worth saying to a counselor and to a parent, because they get it wrong in opposite directions. A worksheet can stand in for a requirement to write something. It cannot stand in for one that says discuss, tell, show or demonstrate, and those are most of them.
