(no subject)
after weeks of uncertainty, i FINALLY discovered what exactly will be my job with bayac americorps. ready?
part 1: lunch time program at jean parker and john yehall chin elementary schools
the program is called lunch bunch and it's goal is to east the transition to middle school for 5th graders. it's two days a week at each school for a six week session. i'll do multiple sessions so i can work with all the 5th graders at each school. details on how i'll be "orienting" them to be determined. group of 15-20 kids, by myself.
part 2: afterschool health ed program
program's called FUEL (which stands for something), but it's technically called gateway to fitness by the grant from kaiser that funds it. it's four days a week for the whole school year (i think). three days of physical activity (emphasis on cardio) and one day of nutrition, usually by cooking. 20-30 kids, by myself. holy shit.
so.... these programs dont start till the end of september, so i have lots of time to plan. but, uh, yeah. creating a curriculum is probably hard.
