Day 3

Date Of Service: April 6, 2011 Time spent 3hrs Total time: 7hrs.

Action: Talked to Irene about how she formed the club, and why she did it. As well as speaking to irene about what she does in her job and how she became interested in it.

Next Action: Teach the Beading group how to mae the paper tissue flowers and also plan the activites for the May carnival.

How am I doing? Today I learned a little more about my mentor, I wasnt able to do it on Monday due to no time. Overall I was amazed on how long she has been a councelor, 26 yrs. She has worked in schools all over the Bay Area.
what i enjoyed the most was the behind the scenes feel of the school, I got to understand a councelors job, for example Irene is in charge of 300 6th graders in the school, she has to make sure they all have good GPA's for high school. When a student gets an F, she immediately sends him down and speaks to him. It was interesting to see how the majority of the kids are worried about their GPA's, and their only in middle school!
