I went to my biweekly meeting with Brooke. We discussed using GivePulse and logging hours. I checked in on how my time at Higher Achievement was going. I asked all the questions I needed to and am all set now!

We participated in Halloween activties and spent some time on homework help. It was a more relaxed day at the site, but we still ended with mentoring with a focus on learning how to use a map. I took the Metro there and back as well.

I spent three hours at Ida B. Wells Middle School with the Higher Achievement Program and one hour on transportation. I spent most of the time tutoring students with homework in the subjects of ELA, Math, and Science.

Had a really great time helping students learn about claim making in English lit writing. Helped encourage those who were having trouble and they ended up finishing their homework really strong!

Today was my first time going to site, and I really enjoyed meeting everyone. I got to take part in some fun activities with the kids, such as pictionary and making candy apples. I got to chat with some of the students and tell them about my major, alongside being present just in case an extra hand was needed.
Out of the time, I wanted to note that I did spend about 50 minutes in transit to and from site.
