== Ideas ==
=== [[Reflections]] ===

Thinking out loud about other ways to help our class.

=== Writing ===

[http://list.9.0ne.org/archive/danhi.2012/2012-October/000034.html Mentioned] by [[Ms. Weirick 2012|Ms. Weirick's class]]:

<blockquote>
3- Kid Writing Volunteers: Around 9am every day, the kids will be practicing their writing. A big help to Ms. Weirick would be for an adult to come by around 9am to help with this. The kids will have drawn a picture. The adult then encourages the child to write a sentence that explains the drawing. Of course, the adult may end up writing some words or all of the sentence, but it's great writing practice for the kids.

=== Classroom Assistant ===

Be a "second teacher" and '''help students during class'''.

=== Mystery Reader ===

Surprise the class and '''read the kids a story'''! If you don't want to bring your own book(s), Ms. Danhi can provide.

=== Homework Packets ===

Each Monday, a packet with the week's homework is sent home, to be returned finished by the student on Friday. Assist Ms. Danhi by '''making copies'''.
