4/25/08 service learning planning

Last week we planned to type up this letter advising parents for permission to allow their kids in this service learning to take a walking tour to different restaurants and sample different foods and get their range prices and get information on how many calories in the restaurant is being served a day, and also we plan to talk to our group members about their behavior because if they can't handle the meetings we have what makes people think we going to be seen in public with if they can't control them selves as 10th and 9th graders and be mature about things.

4/25/08 Service learning meeting Reflection

On friday 4/25/08 we the nutrition group once again met down stairs in the lunch room to talk about new ideas we had and plans we wanted to do for lunch like going out to eat and finding restaurants where there was reasonable prices and all their calories served in each meal of the food and other things for the future.....etc.

But only one problem people in the group are still unsure if they want to be in the group at all and some had questions to  why am I a team leader as well as my other two people Derelle and Micheal, and I said because we came up with the idea and one 10th and 9th grader said "you guys don't know what your doing you shouldn't be leading it" And i'm thinking in the back of head you say all that out your mouth won't you take it over and do a better job than me so my reflection is I didn't like how the meeting went  at all it was totally disrespectful as always and i'm just plain sick of it and the people in my group and I would like to change over into another group.

Service learning/ Nutrition Reflection

on 4-17-08 the meeting for our nutrition group actually went really great I mean me as one of the leaders of the group started off a conversation on who wanted to stay in the and who didn't and everyone seemed okay with the group and put forth some new ideas along with our plans to tour outside for lunch. So we also discussed that the goal of our group was to change our food source and get better food we didn't ask for nutrition, anyway it's our discision on what we eat so there for if we continue to eat the slop we eat now is very fatty so why should we be lecture if we decide to change our lunch to benefit us. I mean it would really help us focus because we had a full balanced meal not some chessy space meal for a 1st grader....... So that's what we discussed and for the second meeting it went great compared to the first meeting.

Intro: In some point in your life you don't realize a good thing until its gone: Once there was a little boy named jamie who was born in Britain but raised in china by his parents who were very well wealthy all around, so there for the little boy could basically get what he wanted. But he wasn't greatful enough to understand his blessing in which that case he became a spoiled bratt because he was used to the good life he didn't respect nothing or no one, like when his maid came down stairs in to the kitchen to see what was all that noise he say" fix me something to eat" the maid replies back your mother said she doesn't want you eating after 8:00 and he said well you work for me and i'm hungry which was disrespectful for a child at the age 9 years old to speak to an adult like that. 3 weeks later china attacts and everyone in china or japan get's seperated from their family and friends I mean everyone lost there big and beautiful houses and cars because of the deadly war and one of those families was jamie family who lost everything and got pushed into the crowd but jamie and his mom were together while the father was being pushed around and yelled out to his wife don't let jamie's hand go.................
Being the hard headed little bratt he is he dropped his toy airplane and let his mother's hand go just to go back and get it, it caused him a rough and sad life for 5 whole years of no parenting and love and attention so therefore he had to learn to bind with strangers and become a man which means means he had to hustle for a soggie plate of food and he even had to learn that every man is for himself.......5 years later after all the years of the tears and warring all around the country he finally got reconnected with his parents and I would say as a message to him " Never take life or the good things in it for granted">>>>.

Nutrition Reflection

On 4-10-08 which was friday the meeting did not go so well I mean the group members did not agree with the group nutritious idea I mean they really acted negative towards the plan anyway they acted if they couldn't wait to leave out of the group and I couldn't wait either.

After our first sell for the food I think we need to order ketchup packet's and other food sources so we won't have to touch the food spreading so the students can pick their own food source just to sooth them because i'm happy once they're happy with our project trying to make a change and that's what me my partners Derelle and Micheal plan to do in the process.
