Second Journal Reflection


Yesterday I just finished my second Service Learning visit and the first thing they had me do was help a kid with his homework. His name was Alfonso and he needed help with his Math and English. Alfonso seemed really smart for his age and caught on to both subjects really well. He finished his homework really fast which made me remember my own homework when I was his age and how I struggled to get it done.
After I was done helping Alfonso with his homework they asked me to help out with Ms. Her, the science teacher. Since the weather was so nice outside we decided to go out onto the playground. I was really mad at myself because I had forgot my camera for the project that is due after the break, but remembered that I will be back the next day and will be able to take some pictures. I also forgot how fast little kids move in the open. As I was watching some of the kids and making sure that they didn't get hurt, I saw out of the corner of my eye a soccer game! Needless to say I had to join! It reminded me of my days on the school playground playing our interpretation of soccer, because for some reason we were able to use our hands. Needless to say I had a blast playing soccer and did not want to leave but 6:00 came too fast and had to catch the bus home.
I am excited to come back for Friday and hopefully play some more soccer!
