Nora-LINC-4/1/10

Vviane, Naomi, Kyla, and I went on our final visit to the 125th st McDonalds in Harlem.  This was the same place as our first visit, so we didn’t do anything different.  We recognized some kids from the last time we went to this activity.

We have become professionals! We wait for the kids to arrive, then we sing some songs including: there was a great big moose, and the ABCs.  Then we broke into groups of about 5 kids and begun to read to them.  I read three books to the children in my group, and I had some time left so I tried to teach them some important words.  All of them were so excited and seemed like they were having so much fun.  After everyone was done reading we came back into one big group and sang a couple more songs like: the wheels on the bus.  At the end all the kids got some food and ate patiently waiting for their parents to pick them up.  So that gave us a chance to talk to Mrs. D.

It wasn’t until after we left that we realized we forgot to take pictures with the kids.  We were having so much fun I guess we didn’t even think about it.  This whole experience has been a lot of fun.  I am glad I chose the topic I did, and I wish it could’ve lasted longer.
