ILP Monthly post (1)

Posted by Matthew Yemola in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

​At my ILP I will be working with engineers to further my understanding of engineering. The way I will be taught is I will be organized into a group of kids who are led by adult mentors who are professionals and have worked on what we want to work on. One big thing that is valued at ACE is immersing kids in the actual work itself.During my ILP we will also visit professional buildings.

ILP Month 1

Posted by Addison Zheng in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

​I found an ILP. What I'm looking forward to is working with kindergartner. What I'm not ready for is dealing with is the noisy kids. What I'm also ready for is getting to know the little kids, even though they can get a little crazy. I feel like this ILP is going to help me improve my experience with kids, even though I plenty of experience already.   

ILP Month 1 Check In

Posted by Nicholas Shaw in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

​ ​I found my ILP in the TechWorks with Mrs. Hull. For now, I've been working on Re-Imaging the computers in Mr. Herman's lab, as well as some other loaners. I'm looking forward to getting to the normal pace of things, working on the computers that come in after people broke them. I'm not looking forward to the times when there's lots of broken laptops and cords from people's computers, usually after large breaks. 

So far, I've learned about the different ways to re-image a computer, as well as the basic procedures on how to deal with a broken computer.

ILP

Posted by Nadya Negron in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

​ So I just recently got my ILP and my ILP is at my dance school. What I do is I help out in one of the teacher's; Ms.Kim in ballet and Jazz 1 class. Basically what I do is demonstrate how to do things in dance. Like if she says Plie and none of them know how to do it, I demonstrate the correct way to do it. Since I just got it on Wednesday I can't really say much about it but I will talk about the process of me getting it. The process was hard for me because at first I had no idea on what I wanted to do for my ILP. I know I wanted to do something fun and in the dance field because I love dancing. I thought since I'm at my dance school almost everyday I might as well try to get an internship there. But I was confused on what wanted to do there. I didn't know if I wanted to help out in a class, teach a class, or help out in the office. I also didn't know how to go about asking them for an ILP. Once we met with Jeremy he told us the correct way in asking for an ILP things likes what to say and what not to say and that really helped me out. After that meeting I met with one of the directors of the dance school and she told me to talk with Ms.Kim and ask her does she need help in her ballet and jazz class. I asked Ms.Kim and it was done from there I helped in her class and it was fun. 

ILP at TFI

Posted by Tajnia Hussain in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

I want to have an ILP at the Franklin Institute. I have been emailing our old supervisor, Ms. Ali, when we went to TFI every Wednesdays last year. She has been emailing me back and forth on what I am interested in for. She has been also emailing the hosts who are in charge of the ILPs there so she will be letting me know.

ILP: Lego League

Posted by Syeda Kalim in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

​I've gone to my ILP for the second time this week. So far, I'm basically organizing kits of lego's that are used for competitions. I think what went well is that I knew the building and didn't have a hard time finding the room because I'm familiar with it, since I did a program in this building this summer. I'm looking forward to getting to work on other projects like this. 
Building/fixing things (lego's) is something that Engineers have to do constantly, and since I want to go into the field of Engineering in the future, I thought this was a great opportunity, and it would give me a push in the right direction. 

Kingsessing Library Elementary Kids Tutoring!

Posted by Kimberly Barnes in Ilp - 10Th Grade - Giorgio - Wed on

I am interning at the Kingsessing Public Library in Southwest Philadelphia. I am interning there from 2pm-4pm.  I am mentoring both elementary kids and middle schoolers, however I am mainly mentoring elementary school kids. I started for the first time last week. I really enjoyed it! It was so fun. I worked with two sixth graders and a fifth grader. They were all boys and had me laughing the entire time. They had alot of stories about what school was like, and joked around alot. However, I made sure that they got their homework done and did their work while they talked and laughed. I also met  a Teacher Assisting Leader. Her name was Ms. Kelly. She just finished college, and is going to be helping the kids with their homework as well. She is really sweet. She also helped keep the boys focused while we did work. 
I've been going to the Kingsessing library for years, they have so many fun programs and movie nights that are really fun. I've also known most of the staff my whole life. They have a learning after school program called LEAP, which is where I am interning.  I also have experience working and babysitting kids so I wasn't worried. I am really looking forward to next Wednesday, seeing and working with the kids again. I also look forward to the fun arts and crafts activities I do with them after they are done their homework. So far, the thing that stands out to me so far, is the firs day of my intern and how fun it was. I think that is important that I establish a could connection with each of the kids I am going to be mentoring, so that they can feel comfortable when asking me for help.I also think that t is important that I act mature but also have fun and have a good time. I'm 15 but, I have alot to learn! I look forward to continuing my internship here. I love the fact that it is a combination of three things I love to do : talking, helping, and working with  kids.
