During the first term , our teachers asked us to do some volunteer work. At the very beginning , we all feel confused because none of us know how to do and where to do. Our planning teacher Ms. Bartell told us some places to volunteer work and she also said that we can do volunteer work for our teacher. We thought that was a good idea. But at that time, none of our teacher had volunteer work for us to do. We felt a little bit upset but we believe one day we can get some volunteer work. We think we should do something freely for others. It is a great chance for us to improve our personality.
Soon, the chance came. Our school have a drama play every year and our English teacher Ms. Mitschrich is in charge of this activity. She needed some student to help her set up the stage and the background for the show. I attended the volunteer activity. During November and December I went to school on Saturday for the volunteer work with my classmates. We worked 2 hours each day. Ms. Mitschrich always bought us some chocolate to increase our work rate. If we were tired, we stop to have some chocolate, then continue our work.
At the first week, it is the week of our school’s basketball championship, 4 other school come to our school to have a championship of 3 days. Ms. Mitschrich asked us to draw a big poster for our school basketball team. They need our encouragement. I worked with other two girls. We first chose a yellow board paper and then we used orange paint to draw on the paper. We drew a player is shooting the basketball. We wrote a slogan on the poster as well to cheer our basketball team up. After that, we bring the poster to the GYM and hold it to encourage our players.
From the second week , we began our set of the stage, there is also a girl in my group. Our task is to use the board paper to make some leaves and put the leaves on the plastic rope. We first cut the oval shape from the green paper and then we cut the top of the leaves , we stapled the top of the leaves to make the leaves more realistic and 3D. Finally we used stapler to staple all the leaves on the plastic rope. There were almost 300 leaves and it took us 3 weeks to finish it.
On the day which the play was shown, all the student come to the theater to watch the play. The show is ‘Taming of the Shrew’which was written by Shakespere. I said proudly to my classmates: look! That tree is made by me! They all said the tree was very realistic. The show was very successful. I felt very happy because my work worked.
This volunteer experience is very meaningful for me, I hope I can have more and more chance to do volunteer work in the future.
