My reflections

I'm Dawnyé .L. Alexander and my values for life are live.love.laugh. Through this experience I learned that i was responsible and able to take care of myself and others and that people trust me to help them out.Also that it is nice to try to make a change not just in your community not everywhere. I do like to volunteer it makes me feel good
about myself. I think that people need to volunteer more in life it really is not that bad it's really helpful to others and it makes you feel good about things and life.

independent hours

For my independent hours I had babysat a lot. I was babysitting for my mom everyday after school for two and a half weeks. I helped in school helping with the lunches to make them better by making sandwhiches and selling juices.And for Ms. Klose helped her with cleaning her room an since it's the end of the year i helping her pack her art supplies up and just help her start cleaning.

service learning

The first group meeting for service learning was a little boring. I thought I was going to switch groups but I stayed and we made progress. thing with our group is we have a lot e of group leaders that are quiet and they can't control the group. sometimes this group really sucks and I don't want to be a part of it because I my ideas really don't count. The group leaders get to decide every thing we do within our group and it's so irking because no one else gets a say in what we do.

service learning

The next time our group goes out we plan on going to Aramark. this is a major food distribution company and they sponsor high school lunches. one of our team leaders set up a meeting with one of the managers to see what qualification we need for sponsoring incase were not able to go out for lunch next year. we also plan on getting Ms. Lynn help for next year so we will have the right supplies for better lunches next year. the ninth grade Math teacher Ms. D also have great ideas for our group, her sister works for a food company and we are planning to meet with her for sponsoring help.

independent

For my independent service hours I did a couple of things. The main thing I did was babysit kids, I watch one of my friends kids while she worked and I also watch my little brothers for my mother although I was mad because I had to dod this with out getting paid i it was a fun experience. I was also a part of my annual block cleaning with my block captian, I swept pavements and cleaned uo in front of the elders doors. i helped an older guy on my block clean up his house.

reflection

In yesterdays meeting unfortunitely I was absent on that day, but I did get some background info on what they were talking about from one of my group members Katonya who said that they talked about getting better lunches and finding places we could go for help. They also talked about letting Mrs Thompson know that they did not want her on the committiee because she did not want to listen to what they were saying. That is all that they talked about to my knowledge of what my group member told me.

last service learning when we had 90 min

For service learning we had a full 90 mins and we were supposed to go to a farmers market, but instead we went to reading terminal. We had to make up a family and create a weekly salary within your family then combine it all together and see how much your family makes in a month. We based our assignment on family and food. Like we decused how our families food income an how many times a week do we ahve to go food shopping.
