1. I plan on completing 30 hours of work with Pomona Valley Special Olympics. Sign ups for spring start on February 9th. I plan to help with registration. I will also participate in the orientation that will take place on this day. Things that will be discussed will be the athletes code of conduct,healthy eating, selections of sports, how attendance and participation will used in selecting athletes to attend. I will also help lead practices and attend tournaments. When Summer Games comes I will also help the head coach on which athletes will get to go and participate.
2. I think my independent component 2 will reach 30 hours of work because practices are every Saturday for 3 hours. During the week also there are sometimes Special Olympics meeting for coaches and volunteers to attend to discuss how things are going and what needs improvement. There are also tournaments that we go to which last for about 6-8 hours.
3. This independent component will help me answer my essential question because I am receiving hands on work experience with athletes, coaches, volunteers, and partners that are involved with Special Olympics. Through my recent research I think I have an idea for my answer two, which is everyone who is involved with Special Olympics helps the athletes become more socially competent.
