Community service paper

My community service was done with Mr.Gillette's SPED class downstairs.I chose this as my community service because I wanted to step out of my comfort zone.Little did I know I was going to end up loving it so much.One of the first things we did was decorate the door for the Christmas door decorating contest.Although we did not win,I had alot of fun working with the students and getting to know every one of them.Lal likes to take pictures.Ahmed likes Jordan sneakers and Gregory is obsessed with numbers.These are just some of the few things I have learned from each child.After the door decorating contest, I participated in basic daily classroom routines such as DIN & learning new lessons.Working with students even gave me a chance to put my communication skills to the test


By helping and interacting with these students I learned to have lots of patience and be very kind.Community service was not only a positive experience,it was an experience I will carry with me..This was my opportunity to give back and learn from other people.Though my community service was 11 hours, I did not get to do a whole lot.However I got to work with kids in my school that have a different day than I do.Participating in programs such as this can benefit special needs with an extra hand not only in class but in their everyday schedule.Community Service benefited me by working on my communication skills and allowing me to impact these kids in a positive way.
