Rutgers University - Newark

The students had minimal homework but were able to finish.

Jumpstart friends were road and completing the session was difficult. Some kids were pulled out of class because of behavior.

Students were able to finish their homework before attending their enrichment programs. Today's homework assignments focused on the conversion of fractions and reading.

Helped out at the JBJ Soul kitchen. Cleaned some of the furniture, put away things from the table, and folded the napkins.

Helped one of my students to write an essay

Group meeting

Children were pretty wild and didn’t want to focus during reading time but successfully completed activities.

Group Meeting

Me and a member from RAS went to the event "Lights on in Newark" It was an amazing opportunity to meet all those people from the school West Side High. Everyone was so giving and made me feel so welcomed to be there. The principle cares so much about his students. They gave us a tour of the school and it included a laundry room for the students, and a school store in which students can come and get clothes for themselves for free. It was great giving back to the school for all that they are doing.

I was able to complete a lot of work at my placement today since sadly many of the teachers assistants are out sick. I am very glad to be able to help the students at the school I am placed in right now.
