I just got a job as an after school program assistant with
kids in my classroom ranging in age from 6-12. As part of
our program we have to have a 30 minute lesson, 30 minute
activity, and then snack, homework and free time. Our
lessons need to be on math, science, reading, music and
health.

I am finding several obstacles here, the age rang of the
children is very wide, there are between 18 and 30 children
on any day, the children get done with 7 hours of public
school and then come to the after school program and they
really don't want anymore structure.

I was wondering if you all could give me any tips or ideas
as to what to do.

For our activity we have a decent sized space to use, but
not much equipment as far as balls and things go. Over all
our resources are kind of limited.
