The first quarter is almost over for the children. Next week will be exams and then they will have the week after that off for Semana Santa (Holy week). The teachers have been meeting every Monday morning for devotions while the children have been having devotions every Thursday. They have been learning how to sow and all have been working on making their own scarfs. Their English has improved by leaps and bounds. I was pleasantly surprised with the 6th graders last week when they went in front of the class and introduced themselves in English. I thought I would have to guide them, but over half the class memorized everything in English with good pronunciation, good vocabulary, and with no help from me. The 5th grade teacher leaves early most days to get to his other job and so I have been spending some time with the 5th graders at the end of the day. I have been teaching them the song "Trading my Sorrows" in English. The kids really pick up songs very fast and has been a wonderful teaching tool. Next Tuesday, the children will compete in Soccer and one girl will compete in a running competition. They are excited for that. Thank you for your support of this school! Here are some more photos:
