Arts and Crafts!

 While I do actually teach math, English, and science.....

 This is me teaching Engligh... 

Trying to get the kids to recognize pictures and say the word in English

Teacher Lucy said my drawing of a table was "wonky"



See!  Actual learning taking place!

Work being done!

 Arts and Crafts are just so much more fun!

Making jewlery

It was so sweet.... That day after school I went to visit four of the boys homes.  When I got there, their mom's were wearing the necklaces the boys had made!

The concentration on their faces to get those beads on the string was adorable!



All smiles!



Bill, Isaya, and Ali

   

Making houses

Learning about shapes and colors (too bad none of their houses look like these "western" houses they all made)

Painting 

First time with water colors! 

They were all so serious and concentrating so hard!  You could hear a pin drop in the classroom.  If only they were like that all the time!

Thomas
I know teachers are not suspossed to say this but he is one of the naughiest!  But when I  find something that interests him, he amazes me!

Jemima
How you seen a sweeter grin?

Shedrack painted an incrdible car, not as incredible as his smile though!

Oh Bill!

Not so sure what Petro painted but I got to give him credit for his use of color!

Tembo class and their final master pieces with Teacher Lucy and I

I never want to leave.....

 I had all the kids write their name and draw me a picture on a sheet so that I could bring it home with me and wrap their love around me when ever I was missing them.
