My responsibilities are strictly to just ‘HAVE FUN!!!’ The kids have snack time, free "quiet time" where they can read, play board game, draw and color, spend time on the computer, or at times make different crafts. They also have structured time where there is a set activity that the children will engage in.
I volunteered there twice a week from 2:30pm until 5pm each day. I rotate around with the kids at the different activities and interact with them. I play with them on the playground, read to the smaller ones who can not read, listen to the older ones read, and just basically engage in anything the kids may be participating in!
