    I helped Bonnie with lunch duty. I also ran my girls group, focusing on reading that week. Me and the girls read a book together and then I tested them for comprehension. I also helped Bonnie make a poster for Ms. Wynn's birthday. It was a great day like always.

    This day was career day. I got to the school early so I could help set up. I helped great some of our guest speakers that were coming in. Since some people did not show up I helped cover for one of them and talked to the students about my college experience, relaying to them the importance of college and scholarships. I think career day went great !

    I ran the girls group session, we practiced math with flashcards. I am happy to say that their math skills are improving and they are more excited to be learning. The kids also got their glasses this day from Eye Care for Kids. We also pulled some kids from class to see if they needed anything.

    Today was an extremely busy day. I started my day by organizing Bonnie's books by reading level. This will make it easier for students to pick out a book to read to practice their reading and take an AR test on it. I then lead the girls group, today we targeted vocabulary and reading. We took turns reading a book and the girls later tested on it, they all got 100%. I then helped Bonnie prepare the flyers for this months Grocery Giveaway.

    I attended a meeting with Margaret, Bonnie, Tami and two guests that could be potential investors/ sponsors for Communities in Schools. I told them about my story with CIS, from being a student in CIS to helping Bonnie now and getting to see the behind the scenes work. I think the meeting went well.

    On this day I lead the girls group once more. Last week I noticed that the majority of the girls needed help mostly with math so I focused on math this session. I also helped Bonnie organize the grocery giveaway forms. I helped a student with their reading, and had time test. It was a great day.

    I helped Bonnie organize and distribute the Eye Care 4 kids forms to teachers. Me and Bonnie did two rounds of lunch duties. I always enjoy lunch because I get to see a lot of the kids that are on Bonnie's case all together. Lunch time is a good time to observe, and many times issues are brought to the spotlight. After lunch I led a girls group of 4 students. Our goal of this group is to help these students with their math and literacy skills. I will be leading this group every week.

    This was my first day back from winter break. I started off my morning by helping Bonnie organize her room. We had the high school mentors come over and mentor the kids. I helped Bonnie run that. We then completed two rounds of lunch duty. I was updated about some behavioral problems. Bonnie talked to me about starting a group this semester. I also had a discussion with Martha the counselor and Bonnie about my project (Career Day). Overall it was a good day!

    I helped Bonnie with the high school mentors this morning. Some of the mentors had to be reassigned to new students due to some of our students moving away. I also helped Bonnie organize her Attendance calendars; keeping track of who turned them in or not. I met with one of the students and helped him with his reading. I also decorated Bonnie's door for the holidays!
