Week2 of volunteering

In 22 Oct 2015 (second week) I joined 2 workshop in ZHO. My first period was in carpentry workshop with the teacher Mr Mohamed Alhammadi and the second period was in sewing workshop Mr.Alaa.

Second week of our volunteer in ZHO was a new challenge for us that we got a lot of new information which was really benefit for us. I joined Abdulrahman in the first workshop because I didn’t found Ms.Maitha to tell me which workshop I should join. I learned when you teach someone about something you have to benefit him in everything, what does that mean? My major in carpentry for example so I will not just focus in teaching special needs about carpentry, while I will try to teach them about ethical rules in general (without pressuring them) in depending to my life experience. That exactly the method which I saw the most workshops in ZHO are using.

 What is their efficient daily program?

1. Starting the day by reading Al-Fatihah from The Koran which take less than 2 minutes.
2. Review about safety rules and workshop rules.
3. Academic skills review.
4. Craft skills review and completing daily activities.
5. Finally arrange and organize the workshop.

The second workshop was sewing and it was amazing to meet the students there and the teacher. They were working on making hand band with the threads and at the same time they were learning the colors, in the begninig I just was see them while they working then I help them with what I can, then Mr.Alaa and one of the special needs teached me how can I make the hand band it was fun and they gave me the band which I did gift for me.    

                                     

week1 ZHO

Week1 ZHO group2

13 Oct 2015 was first volunteering day for my group in ZHO. Ms Maitha Almuhairi took us round special needs departments which include 11 departments (Carpentry, blacksmithing, electricity and so on). Each one of us choose department to stay on it even we will exchange departments weekly. That was absolutely new experience in our life.

I chose the most default department it was rehabilitation and I was dealing with one of the special needs his name is Ahmed and he can’t communicate at all with no body but physically he was okay.

Actually I learned a lot of things from dealing with special needs I must be careful all the time and before to take any decision you have to talk with special needs in suitable term to understand the situation also for taking right decision on right time. Each one of them has like a catalog (history) which include all details about themselves, so you as a person when you have specific information about them you will can to deal with those special needs by most efficient way.
