Multimedia Essay With Text
The service learning at Escuela Vieau has been a very enjoyable experience, since I have never done anything like this. Knowing only the name of the school before orientation it was easy to realize that it was a dominant Spanish speaking school. Coming from the suburbs of Milwaukee, it was different for me to see an elementary school in the middle of the city rather than surrounded by subdivisions. I was not sure what to do when I first arrived and the door was locked, I kind of thought to myself maybe there’s another entrance? I wasn’t used to locked elementary school doors. Another classmate was behind me and said try that door bell and sure enough we were buzzed into the school. At least now I’d know that for when I went back. I got assigned to sports and fitness, which is held in the gym the majority of the time. I mostly played sports with the older kids, like 5th-8th grades. It was obvious soccer was almost everyone’s favorite sport since we played soccer pretty much everyday, and soccer seemed to be the only sport painted on the walls that appeared twice. More recently I spent time with the younger kids and they chose to play on the playground. The scenery was different from the last time I was on a playground. We were playing tag in the middle of the city.
