After orientation, I was assigned to sports and fitness on Mondays. Sports and fitness was the first of my choices so I’m glad I got it. I’ve always been an athlete and enjoyed all kinds of sports so I knew I would have a fun time playing different sports with the kids and teaching them some things and maybe even learning a few things from them. The first day of service learning, myself and another student were suppose to report to the gym to start the sports and fitness with Ms. Jeanette. The first day the kids chose to play kickball, which was fun since I had not played kickball since I was in middle school. After the first day though, everyday I had done sports and fitness the kids had chosen to play soccer. Which was fine with me, soccer is and has been my favorite sport to play as well and I have played it since I was about six years old. Some kids chose to do other activities, but no matter what every day there was a group of kids who would play soccer, whether it be half of the gym or the full gym, either way the kids wanted to play. Also, one nice day outside, we took a younger group of kids out to the playground, which was fun since I haven't been down a slide or across monkey bars since I was a kid.
