Day 3: Today was the first day we were with the students. We divided up into four groups for tutoring, 3 with 8th grade, 2 with 6th grade, 2 with 5th grade, and 3 with 4th grade. With our firsthand experience with the children we started to really understand their plight. It was really great and rewarding helping the kids with their work. Through all of the barriers in their life, they are really trying their best to fight through it, and that is really inspiring. The least we can all do is help them succeed. After school, we had a guest speaker, Marty Martain. He gave us a brief history of Native Americans in Montana, and showed us a lot of Native American regalia. It was really interesting to hear about the the Native American history, and see all of the interesting artifacts. All in all, it was a very enlightening day that we all thoroughly enjoyed.
