I am REALLY looking forward to the next two weeks and our early start program. I got told about this about a week and a half ago.
Okay, actually we were asked to volunteer for it back in July.
Basically we’re asking 9th graders to come back early, from 8:30 – 1:30 and we’re going to feed them breakfast and lunch for two weeks, Monday through Thursday.
Training was last Monday and pretty good. Our goal is to connect with our students so that they know the building and have at least 4 adults they can go to for help.
Hopefully that means we’ll retain them.
It was confirmed yesterday that I can participate.
I am basically going to with them what I did with the 8th grade girls – I am going to have them create an Alice world, using any of the characters of Alice, and I am going to start by having them go through the four tutorials.
Okay, I’m also looking forward to $20 an hour!
