Service Learning: Final Day

Sup everybody, it's me Javier with my weekly posting. This week's service learning session was our last one.  We began the day with doing trust falls again. I was impressed by how the kids did the trust falls this week. They did it perfectly. Last week when we did it, some of the kids would bend their knees when they fell backwards, but this week, most of them fell back perfectly without bending their knees. My guess was that they built enough trust with one another and were therefore able to do the trust falls the second time perfectly. After the trust falls, we presented the kids with their certificates of accomplishment. They were really happy to have received them. The one thing I didn't like about the certificates was how we had to write in back something that kids could work on for the future. Some of the kids in my group didn't really like my suggestions, and I had a hard time coming up with something that the kids could work on because the kids in my group were really good. After the we presented the kids with their certificates, the gym teacher invited us to play dodge ball with them. The kids were happy to have us be part of their game. I thought the game was fun. After the game we left. I thought that our last day was a good one, and I'm glad that we got to have some type of last day special event, especially after learning that some of the people in the past didn't really get the opportunity to say bye to the kids. I hope to do something like this again in the future. Anwayz that's it for this week, take care

Hey Javy,

I think it's great that you were able to do the activity over again and present the certificates. When I was the same age I loved getting certificates. They always made me feel very accomplished. In matter of fact I still have certificates that I received in Kindergarten. I actually can't wait to give out certificates to the group of kids I worked with. I'm really looking forward to it.
