Teachers Getting Trained

Here are pictures of a few of the students who went to the two-week training course in Early Childhood Development at APPM.

Picture 1: During the Certificates Ceremony, the trainees showed us, the guests, what they had learned. There was singing, dancing, and demonstrations of Immunization Record keeping, how to make an alphabet chart, etc. Pictured here are a bunch of the teachers showing the cool stuff you can make for students (or have them make themselves) using local materials. Do NOT miss Patrick on the far left. He put on the sunglasses just for the singing. A crowd favorite, that one.


Picture 2: The sign for the place is in the background). These are the teachers from Kuunika Foundation. Note how creeped out Rita appears to be by my placing my hand on her shoulder. From the left, it's Brandina, Rita, (White Guy), Ruth, (Hawa's baby), Hawa, Jonas, Emmanuel.


Thanks go to Chris Pappas in New York/Turkey, Ethan and Laurel in Bowling Green, WI (that's right, right?), Laura Groen in Hollywood (I love saying that), and Laremy and Becca in Annapolis, MD. Dang, I can't help feeling really cool by association here. Groovy, groovy people give me money. And, not everyone gets to city-name-drop like this, ostensibly "for a good cause," but really for my own ego.
