Hoping to Help

This semester I was involved in two different volunteering capacities: working with the literacy program at an elementary school and tutoring/mentoring an 8th grade girl through a program at Eastern Avenue Church.  Sadly, they both came to an end last week, probably forever.  I just won’t have time in my schedule next year to fit those two activities in.  I’m actually really disappointed that I won’t be able to tutor anymore, because I thoroughly enjoyed my girl, Ciara.  She was a joy to see every week, and we’re still going to work something out to see each other every so often.  Maybe some Jersey Junction ice cream, maybe some games of Scrabble...we’ll think of good stuff to do.

  1. The literacy program at an elementary school...do they read *anything* these days? Harry Potter maybe - but even Harry Potter is better than numerous comics. <a href=http://www.goosebumpsguide.blogspot.com>Goosebumps Horrorland series</a> (and all previous 60+ books from Goosebumps) would come handy for this purpose methinks - books are much shorter than those about Potter, and kids apparently love scary tales :)

  2. “Scary tales” is not the best for elementary school, there were big experiment in Russia with an education based in “Scary tales style”. This experiment fault.
