Day 17

Date of Service: April 29, 2011 Time Spent: 1hr Total Time: 25hrs.

Action: Went around the school during lunch and signed kids up for the booths of:
- Face Painting
-Snow Cones
- Bracelets and Necklaces

Next Action: Come May 5th for the Carnival

How am I doing? I was able to interact witht he Students of Marina Middle School today, it was fun. Three girls helped me go around signing kids up, their names are Jacky, Bianca, and Estella. I was amazed on how sociable they were, they got along with pretty much everyone from the school. We were very successful in getting 33 kids to help set-up, clean-up the booths.
I noticed the unity of the teachers with the councelors. I was able to be with Irene when she would call down the students who had F's and I noticed that all the kids were very eager to bring them up, I also noticed that Irene would let them do most of the talking instead of vice-versa. She let them decide on what they would do to raise their grades instead of her telling them what to do. I asked Irene why she did this and she said it works better for kids because they come up with their own solution to the problem. I am so eager to come back May 5th!
