Last Day

For my fourth day of volunteering I chose to go back to Cabrillo since I enjoyed it the other two times I went. It was the same routine as the other times: going there after school, signing in at the office, and going to the class room I help at. Once I signed in at the office I went to room 28 which is the class room I always go to, to volunteer. I got into the class and signed in like the teachers have told me to. The after school program wasn't like last time where the teacher was doing a math lesson on the board. This time the kids were just doing their own thing as in what they needed to get done which was their homework or they would read. One of the teachers in there told me to just walk around and ask if anyone needed help since some of the kids are a bit shy to ask for help, so I did that for a while but no one needed help so I sat down at the big table. Finally a little girl named Monica came up to me because she needed help reading a book called "Dear Dumb Diary". I had her read the story to me and just helped her pronounce some of the words she got stuck on. As she was reading two other little girls came to the big table and joined along, I forgot their names. I had them take turns reading the story. We didn't get through the whole story because time was running out. I ended it short with them because I helped them put their chairs on the table like they're suppose to before they leave the after school program.

This social issue is important because its good to help one another out especially in school, because that is where their future starts at. I really enjoy helping the kids out in room 28 because they're all really nice and seem to like the help they get. I think these after school programs are good for the students because it helps them get their work done since they have about three teachers in the room, enough to help about 15 students. Its a good work environment because most kids cant focus at home since there are a lot of distractions like T.V's and computers etc.
