I helped a teacher at a sports project, mostly football but I also played some games with the children. Together with two other volunteers we did excursions with the children and also adults to other places in Rio for example Copacabana, Santa Teresa and Modern arts Museum. I also visted some families that received help in the health promotion project of AMAMU.

Please continue the great project Segundo Tempo and inspire all children to exercise and stay healthy. For rainy days you can plan some lessons inside, for example in healthy eating, basic anatomy, history of sports or something else that the children doesn’t learn a lot about in school and that they find interesting. You can also try to introduce some other sports maybe once a week or so.
For volunteers that speak good Portuguese you can hold classes in health promotion for teenagers.
