ACJ 3: International work camps of activities with Children. Why this project? There are no captivating activities and facilities for children during the recreation or at the end of a learning episode in the aim of a beneficial and fruitful relaxation. We are very interesting and shedding light on children Outside Fakih BenSalah and its surrounding. Schools have no playgrounds no schoolyards no toys and no theatre. A lot of children are bored, hanging around, doing nothing. For these children ACJ wants to organize activities in the summer to give them a nice holiday. ACJ aims to attract especially children from poor families.
Method Children will be grouped according to their age. Each volunteer will guide a group of children. Volunteers are free to design the program and choose activities according to their own whishes and the preferences of the children. Examples of activities are theater, dance, music, games, Teaching foreign languages and sports. Again, volunteers have to take into account that there are limited materials available. Before your arrival we expect you to have many ideas of activities to do for the kids, so when you are preparing the work with other volunteers you can participate giving ideas and propose activities. Mostly children understand the games/tasks by giving a first example, but there are also translators in case.
