Service learning project
I was part of a team that presented at to a class of ESL 2nd grade students at P.S. 166 in Queens. The presentation focused on nutrition and oral health. We created a lesson plan and organized a Tell-Show-Do approach to engage these children. The class was responsive and retained a lot of the information we provided. Our presentation included:
- demonstration guides
- goodie bags
- before and after Q&A
- Tooth brushing tracking calendar
This experience was very rewarding. It gave us the opportunity to utilize our education and give back to the community.
