On March 18, I helped the kids at the Boys & Girls club with their homework. They also passed around a card for all of us to sign saying Happy Birthday to my mentor also the supervisor there at the Boy & Girls club because it was her birthday. We also gave out really health rice crispy treats. My next plan when I go back is to continue helping the kids to the best of my abilities. Making sure they are treating each other with respect and having there homework done on time so that we can all continue to have as much fun as possible.

On March 7th the kids and I played a game of kickball. I was surprised they even wanted to play because the last time I played kickball with them I nearly had to beg them to play. I said to them that I would bring the winning team a surprise but never did. They had lots of fun. I pitched all game around. Many of them would ask to pitch but I didn't let them because if I let one then I had to let the others to be fair. Now I understand why teachers say "if I let you I have to let everyone else" it all makes sense to me now. The day was fun other than the kids becoming a little to aggressive with one another but other than that it was a good day of kick ball with the boys & and girls club. I plan on getting to know these kids in a more serious level.

On March 4th I went to the Boys & Girls club and I helped the kids with their homework and played dodge ball. I have never been a big fan of dodge-ball because I am very much afraid of flying balls hitting my face and breaking my nose or something tragic happening and to prove my point there were many injuries yesterday. Two kids were hit in the head causing them to cry and probably changing their minds about dodge-ball other than it was a good day.
