Hi guys! It has been a while since I have posted, and that's because we have been BUSY! The school had an incredible Performing Arts show, a tearful and joyful graduation, and now we are kicking off our summer program. The kids spend Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays reading age-appropriate books in their group level's reading shack. We spent a couple of days gathering wood, plastic, and tools to build our group's shack. I even learned how to weave coconut tree leaves to make coverings and decorations. (no pictures up yet... but look for them soon!) The summer reading program really strengthens the kids' English skills and it's fun too! On Tuesdays and Thursdays we go to the beach with the younger kids and swim and swim and swim. The older kids help lead VBS's held in different two locations. I just finished a week of teacher training in the city and am now a certified School of Tomorrow supervisor. =)
Life is good. We are missing our family and friends in the states, but we are enjoying all of our new adventures here, too. Thank you for supporting us and caring about us. Have a great day!
I bet swimming in Boone lake helped you prepare for all that swimming! The weather here is getting nice, but not quite hot enough for them to open the lake. We'll miss going there with you.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your School of Tomorrow certification!
Oh, and keep posting here when you can. I just found this after reading your March newsletter (sorry, I've been behind on email and actually responded to your SoC email from a few weeks ago). We miss you guys and have your missionary picture hanging on our hallway wall.
