August 22nd- 26th

This week was our first week together here at North High School. This week the students and I did a few ice breakers and team building activites.  The students really enjoyed the "People Bingo Activity". On the first day of school the students were shy and quiet. However, after the bingo activity the students were talking more and interacting with one another.

This week we also talked about "Inspiration". We discussed the people in our lives who have inspired us, how they have inspired us, and how we can use this year to inspire others. The students took some time to think about their younger cousins, siblings, neighbors, and peers who can and will be inspired by them.



Finally, We talked about "needs. " What do we need from the program manager to be successful, what do we need from classmates to be successful, and what do we think all students need in order to be successful?  Each class came up with a list of needs that they would like for the school year. Overall, this was a successful first week here at North!
