Tasks
In the beginning of the project (September - October) volunteer will have little more technical work than direct contact with children. He/she will have maintenance tasks, cooking, doing dishes, gardening etc. Later in the year these tasks will balance. As volunteer will get more comfortable we expect him/her to offer his/her own initiative (but it is not compulsory). We hope he/she will organise something to share his/her own culture (crafts, cuisine, language, music etc.) During meetings with supervisor it will be main focus to find the best suited time table for volunteer according to his/her likes and dislikes special capacities and strengths. Maintenance tasks, activities with small children (2 – 6 years old), simply lessons’ observations, attendance and support during crafts, music lessons, gardening etc. are possible options. Through activities at school volunteer will gain knowledge about Waldorf pedagogy, eurythmic, age stages, alternative ways of teaching and lots of other things. He/she will gain experience in work with children (2 to 16 years old), team work and organizing events. He/she will learn and experience Lithuanian culture, Lithuanian language and will get to know country from inside. It will be great chance to examine own culture, stereotypes, strength etc. School time table and proposed activities for volunteer: 8:00 – 8:15 Children start to arrive / Day breathing with supervisor; 8:15 – 8:45 Time before lessons / Welcome children and play with them in the sport hall; 8:45 – 10:30 Main lesson / Help with breakfast in the pre-school group, play, crafts; 10:30 – 10:45 Break / Presence in the sport hall and sport games with children; 10:45 – 11:20 Lesson / Help in the kitchen (cooking, preparing tables etc.); 11:20 – 11:45 Lunch break / Help in the canteen (dishing out, supporting smaller children, general order, doing dishes, cleaning after etc.); 11:45 – 13:30 Activities in swimming pool or forest / Be extra adult supporting children in the trip; 13:30 – 16:00 After school activities / Participation in sport hall games / sea scouts / ceramics / chess etc.).
