what did i do?For an hour on February 20, 2016, I helped the librarian reshelve the library. I helped them by putting books in it shelves and help to organize them by placing in the shelve where each one is supposed to be. Not only that, I was able to help order the books making the book look tidy and neat on their shelves. Also, I was assigned to give comments and recommend the reader about some particular book. reflectionsI realized that being a librarian is not easy and that the kids are very careless. They do not place books in the place that they are supposed to be and it makes it very hard for people to find their book. The librarian job is very tiring too because they have to keep organizing the books at all time since books are always out of its order. I realized that if I read any book, I should place it back to the place where I took it from. Also, I started to understand how it is like to read books and give recommends. It is not easy at all because it takes time and effort to give good comments about any books. how is this related to els0?It is related to strategic learner because in this community service, I recognize what is important to know by recognizing that the librarian worked very hard for the students. I reflect on learning and how our mistakes could help us to improve by recognising the problems of kid not arranging the books properly and wanting to solve this problem by encouraging kids to help arrange their books properly.
What did we do?I went to the paper ranger with a group of air purser on May 15, 2016 near Thonglor. There were several steps for us to make a book from scrap paper. First, we had to fold the scrap paper in half. Then we organize them neatly, making sure to put the folded side on to the cover. After that, we use a hammer and nail to make hole and ropes to tie the paper together. Having all of these steps done, we now have a cute looking book. To make the book look more attractive we would draw cartoons or images and colour them. Mostly I did the last step. I drew a lot of cartoon and I colour them making it look best as I could possibly do. ReflectionsI realized that I'm very lucky because I have all the books and notebooks that I need while some kids do not even have the same opportunity as I do. I also noticed that people these days do waste a lot of paper without doing something useful to it. By this, we can now change these wasted paper into something better which are books for children who has lesser opportunity than us. I think it is a very good idea which helps the community and society become a better place. How is it related to ESLO?I think it is related to ESLO by Altruistic Global Citizens because it is stated that show concern and responsibility for the well being of the community in which this organization really shows caring to the rural areas and rural kids where they have no books to study and by being very detailed to make a good book which these kids would want to use really show their concern towards these kids. Also, sending these books to them show their responsibility because they have to keep doing it all the time until it turns into part of their routine doing it everything throughout the year.
What did I do?I went to take homeless dogs to walk around for 2 hours on April 22, 2016. It is located on the Mahidol campus because the dogs need some exercise to be healthy and there was no one to take them for a walk. ReflectionsI realized that dogs aren't always scary since I was always scared of dogs. Not only that, I realized that some are born lucky having owners to take care of them while some are unlucky because they are left alone with no one to take care of them. I realized that these dogs just need someone to feed them and care for them just like how we people want someone to look after us. They just need a friend to be with them and they would be very friendly and nice to us if we treat them the same way. How is it related to ESLO?It is related to ESLO by morally intelligent persons. It is stated that we are hardworking and caring. I think that we should all work harder to solve the issue of homeless dogs in order to make our community a better place and care for these dogs which need love just like other human beings.
We had to make a poster for the science fair in order to earn our learner activity hours. This is a competition between classes. Our class won!
