068. Become a volunteer

Geng Hao said: "Didn't you say that within three years, our Mo Village will also develop? Let's get through these two years first. Moreover, tourism is the most powerful way to drive the economy. If the tourism in Taoyuan Village is started, the villages on this road can develop like Fei, and it is possible to get rid of poverty in two or three years. ”

Principal Huang glanced at Geng Hao and laughed at him stupidly: "Taoyuan Village has built a tourist spot on it, where has it developed? There is only a big waterfall on it, and there are some natural spring pools. I heard that there are some precious birds in that mountain, which are the only ones in our county, but we haven't seen them much. This is a tourist project, and no one will come. The town also wants to develop and wants to go crazy. ”

Geng Hao didn't understand the situation over there, so he couldn't say anything more. I was thinking of finding a chance to go to the waterfall for a walk. Director Mo recommended it to him during the summer vacation last year, but he never had a chance to go.

The word volunteer is not well understood in Huangyang County, most of whom have only learned about it on TV and the Internet, and know that they are a group of people who do voluntary activities, so when faced with the small-scale recruitment of public welfare organizations, basically no one cares. When Geng Hao went, there were only two or three people interviewing.

After hearing about the benefits and tasks of volunteers, some people thought that it would be better to find a part-time job in the county to earn more, so they gave up. In the end, only Geng Hao and another volunteer continued to want to stay, and naturally, they passed the review and became volunteers for this summer children's reading camp.

By the way, the volunteer who was with Geng Hao was the young sister of the volunteer who served with Sun He last year, named He Xiaoxiao, the person in charge who led them, and the sister of the person in charge last year, named Gong Na. Because of the communication last year, Geng Hao will not be able to get acquainted with the two of them, and he can enter the volunteer work as quickly as possible.

Before the volunteer activity began, the three of them had their first meeting in the activity room. Gong Na is naturally the host.

"This year's summer children's reading camp has been confirmed to be our three volunteers, Xiao Xiao came last year, and Geng Hao also learned about our activity last year. Gong Na smiled kindly, saw the two of them nodding, and continued, "When I held a small training meeting last time, I introduced to you our organization, what our organization does, as well as some basic questions about children, as well as the meaning and content of this reading camp. I don't know if you remember?"

Geng Hao and He Xiaoxiao didn't talk much. They remember the general content, but if they ask for details, they dare not guarantee it. Gong Na didn't care either, thinking that this was a very normal phenomenon, she just smiled and continued.

"Let's mainly talk about this reading camp and what to do next. Last year was actually the first year of our development, and we also crossed the river by feeling the stones, and there were many problems, but there were also many places to learn from. The general format of this year and last year will not change, just the form of classes to carry out activities, the format of classes will not change, the main focus is to develop their interests, you can use various methods to mobilize their enthusiasm, do not have to be as rigid as classes. We're not a school, are we?"

Geng Hao and He Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement.

"Now I would like to formally talk about some of the work that we need to accomplish in carrying out our activities. The first is to carry out the activity in the form of a class, each of you needs to write a lesson plan in advance, and the lessons are still three, art, reading and appreciation, and music. Which one of you two?"

"I'll teach art as well, this is for me. He Xiaoxiao was the first to speak.

When Geng Hao heard this, he also hurriedly spoke: "I choose to read and appreciate." "He doesn't teach much music.

"Well, I'll teach them music lessons. I also like to teach them to sing. Gong Na also expressed her satisfaction with this, and then continued, "Then next Monday, we will carry out activities, you today and tomorrow, take two days to make a plan, only a general outline is enough, no need to be particularly detailed, the specific outline and class content can be prepared the day before class, and the specific class materials can also be prepared the night before, we can help each other." ”

When Gong Na spoke, she kept looking at Geng Hao. She and He Xiaoxiao both did it last year, so the main reason for talking about these is to let Geng Hao understand and understand, Geng Hao nodded hurriedly and said that he understood.

"Then this is the preparation for the class, specifically during the class, the three of us volunteers have tasks, one is a lecturer, one is a teaching assistant, and one is taking pictures. We said during the training that we do this activity, and the funds are all donations, so after our activity, we need to submit a summary, so that the superiors can see the results of our activity, so as to get funding to start the next reading camp. I've said it before to summarize what you need, Geng Hao, do you remember?"

Geng Hao was suddenly named, thought about it carefully, and said: "In the report, the first one is the summary written by Sister Na, the second is the picture, the third is the volunteer's feelings, and the fourth is the children's observation record." ”

"Well, good memory. Gong Na continued, "The picture needs to be taken on a regular basis, so it must be taken in every class, and then sorted out and stored in the computer once a day or once a week, so that we can organize it when we have time." Volunteer feelings are your own summary, so you need to write a daily summary every day, and it will be convenient to write a summary at the end. Children's observation record is to write about the changes of a child from entering the reading camp to the end of the reading camp, so every day in class, you should also pay attention to observing the child's situation, just pick an observation, and then you can use any point or a few points, mainly to show that our activity is meaningful to the child. ”

Geng Hao wrote it down carefully, and wrote keywords such as "daily summary, children's observation record" in the notebook, so as not to forget.

"This is class, now I write a plan, I write a lesson plan and prepare materials the day before, I take pictures with a teaching assistant during class, and I observe the students. After each day's activities, we will have a daily summary meeting to summarize the advantages of our class, what needs to be improved, what difficulties there are, and how we feel. Then discuss how to improve. Write it down, and that's your daily summary. After the wrap-up meeting, it's time to prepare for the next day's class. Gong Na made a final summary, "The phased task is to sort out the photos once a week. We have a mid-term exchange meeting every two weeks, which is attended by the general meeting of the district elders of our organization. At the beginning of the third week, we will prepare the program for the closing activities. After four weeks, at the end of the activity, you will need to hand in a personal summary and a record of your children's observations. ”

Geng Hao quickly wrote it down in his notebook, feeling that the tasks were not ordinary, and it was completely different from the volunteer service he had imagined before. He always thought that volunteers only needed to take their children to study for such an activity, but he never expected that there would be so much work to be done behind the scenes. It is estimated that the time and energy consumed every day is no less than that consumed by him as a teacher at Mocun Primary School.

"Geng Hao, get ready, in the first two weeks, I may be so tired that I just think about sleeping when I go back every day. ”

Gong Na gave him a preventive shot in advance, and He Xiaoxiao also smiled mysteriously, their situation was not much different from Zhong Xiu's appearance when he reminded him that the summer vacation in Mo Village was difficult. Geng Hao swallowed his saliva and hurriedly did a good job of psychological construction for himself. There is also He Xiaoxiao and Gong Na's "intimidation" in their ears.

"Actually, it's not very easy to start preparing for the show in the last two weeks. Classes are held in the morning, rehearsals are rehearsed in the afternoon, and there is no need to prepare for classes in the evening. As a person who has come over, He Xiaoxiao sighed about the hard work of being a volunteer.

Gong Na grinned: "The third week is okay, it is the most relaxed, and the rehearsal program is more intense mainly in the fourth week." However, in the month of last year, I could hold meetings for an hour or two every day, and then prepare for classes or something, and it would be more than ten o'clock in the evening, or even twelve o'clock in the evening. It doesn't look like there's anything to get it, but it's a lot to get. ”

"Well, yes. He Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement.

Geng Hao sat in the distance, his eyes revolving back and forth with the two of them talking, and he felt that the two of them didn't plan to let him do a good job of psychological construction. Gong Na found that Geng Hao's state had begun to drift away, and she smiled and laughed.

"Geng Hao looks like he's going to be scared away by the two of us. Drop the book directly.,Turn your head and leave.。 ”

Geng Hao hurriedly said: "No, no." ”

"Okay, then let's talk about the tasks of the two days. Our notice to the outside world is to register for the reading camp all day on Sunday, and only accept children in grades three to six, otherwise we will not be able to manage the small ones, and the big ones will not be suitable for them, so we will choose this age group first. We have a camp opening ceremony on Monday morning, and parents need to come over, so we will talk to parents about this when they sign up. We will discuss the process of the opening ceremony later. At the end of the opening ceremony, we first led the children to set up class rules, which were not for us to say, but for the children to make their own rules, and we would guide them. They said that what they couldn't do in class, so we wrote it on the big white paper prepared at that time, and the children would pay more attention to the class rules they made themselves. Oh yes, I'll be working out the schedule and class schedule for the next two days. ”

Gong Na flipped through the notebook, thought about it, turned her head and asked He Xiaoxiao: "There should be nothing missing, right?"

He Xiaoxiao shook his head: "No." Then it's time for class. ”

"Well, yes, that's it. Gong Na confirmed, and then asked Geng Hao, "I should have made it clear what I want to do in the past two days, right?"

"Mm-hmm, clear. Geng Hao nodded in agreement.

Gong Na nodded with satisfaction: "Although Xiaoxiao and I did it last year, there are still many problems that we need to explore and solve." We are all volunteers, although I am the project leader, but I also work with you, there are no superiors and subordinates, any ideas are put forward, if we can, we will implement them together. In the coming month, let's work together. Now, let's discuss the opening ceremony?"

Geng Hao and He Xiaoxiao nodded at the same time.

This discussion took another hour or two, and the meeting of three people lasted for more than three hours. After the meeting, Gong Na took the two of them to a hot pot restaurant to eat hot pot, which was the beginning of the celebration.
