SNOW DAY!!!!!!!!


In a summary I believe, “The Hasbro Summer Learning Initiative” is a summer program that helps to provide some academic skills to keep up, so the children don’t lose any skills when school starts. They want to make sure to that the programs are hand on to ensure an enriched/ excited program during the summer. Also, more than 1,100 children and youth are being served in 14 programs in 10 communities across the state of Rhode Island by HSLI. They are addressing the problem by helping the student retain information and skills that they have learned in school. Therefore, the problem that student won’t be able to remember or lost the skills set won’t be a problem if they just join the 6-week program that’s in the summer.
I think that this 6-week program, this aligns with purposeful play and care.
·        The children are learning through play different activities, but also it helps bridging the achievement gap.
·        The teachers got to show care for these children, by creating a space where it fun, positive and a learning space where children are comfortable.

Some/few of the main components for the grant proposal are:

·        Applicants must be able to advance the LIVE UNITED 2020 goals and results. Applying organizations must be able to measure, collect, and report on key performance measures linked to one or both of the following UWRI-identified results: [1] Children are prepared for success in school, and [2] Young adults are prepared for college and careers.


·        Applicants must collaborate with a main partner to achieve shared goals. If the organization applying is a community-based organization, its main partner is a school district; if the organization applying is a school district, its main partner is a community-based organization.


·        Applicants must demonstrate how they will co-create and co-deliver a summer learning curriculum that builds academic, social-emotional, and essential skills, and is delivered in hands-on, experiential ways with real-world applications.

Against Philanthropy

The central argument of this article is philanthropy, but also the main critiques of the nonprofit sector and funding. Jenny Price wrote about how they are getting big donations from huge corporations to the organization but by the being said, they are receiving tax write-offs in return. I like how Price put in the article how “The average major U.S. corporation maximizes profits as its primary goal while paying more limited attention to social and environmental consequences.” This shows that the companies aren’t paying any attention to the issues like; having vaccinations or refusing medication.    For example, the use is to help like, “In the Niger Delta, a $218 million Gates Foundation program provides polio and measles vaccinations.” Then the different organizations start to create more problem that links to the different cause of having polio and the measles. These examples show how nonprofits are fixing something but not the problem at hand. ( I’m going to b...

THEORY CHANGE

What one of the problems in my internship is trying to solve is children missing meals or are hungry all the time and when we achieve this by providing them with healthy snacks . For this, we pick different healthy snacks that we are presented with and if they don’t like that snack they put it on the share table. We also provide opportunities throughout the week that are a different snack but, even let them eat how much they want within reason . On an average day, we serve snack by portioning the right amount, and if they want another round of snack, they first look at the share table. This is a way to help the children know that we shouldn’t just throw out the food we want because someone else might want what you don’t want. The goal of YMCA   is to provide a healthy life choice but also “ Caring – We nurture and guard the well-being of youth and adults; and we promote healthy lifestyles, self-esteem, self-reliance, optimism, and fun. ” Knowing that the children ...

PLAYBOX: Being Silly

Playbox: BEING SILLY My story time:  Why Haley and I chose this specific project of puppets for being silly. When we decided the puppets because we found that they are very essential to child care. These puppets that we made are not only for play, but it’s talking to children by expressing your emotions. Also, They help make the environment more light in tough situations like how Rachel mention in our Playbox. When doing those puppets, it leads to a conversation that can help everyone relate. When creating the puppets we can have different race/ ethnicity by expressing the way they are making them. My experience planning out : To tell you the truth Haley did most of the planning; this activity took her five minutes to plan. So, when I asked her what you would like me to do? She asked me to gather materials and also look at the presentation she has created But also is why if it was the best activity to do for being silly . It was fun finding different ...
