Volunteer blog: Week 3 by Marina

This week we have started with Brain Games, were we focus on kids with reading challenges. A guy named Lolwethu, who also live here in Langa, and I will run this classes. Aimee, the occupational therapist here on PPG started this project and she has taught me and Lolwethu how to run the class.

The concept is to learn threw play. So far we have been playing name games and Simon says.  We have two groups, one with children from the Below 8 class and one for those who are older were most of them are 11-13 years old.

It is a very nice and easy environment for the children to feel comfortable, have fun and learn. The children were laughing a lot and you could really see that they really enjoyed it which is so important that they do. I really enjoyed it too and I look forward to continuing.
