Hola!
January brought
new volunteers and some new experiences. Monica came from Canada, Helen came
from England, and Nate and Ruth came from the US in the beginning of the month.
We started up club de ninos again. They are slow to get back into the routine
of coming, but by the end of the month is was back in full swing. We also threw
a party because the children finished reading their books. So we played games
and they were able to buy prizes with their points. The children love it and we
hope it keeps them reading!
Also this
month we started the winter course for the kids since they are out of school
for the next couple of months. During the winter course they learn drama, art,
English and plenty of games every morning during the week. We have been having
fun drawing and making comics, making shapes with our bodies and playing
charades, and playing duck duck goose and lobo.
This month
Nate, Monica and Ruth have been volunteering at the foundation for people with
disabilities. They have been working on increasing the number of students with
special needs, working with them daily and planning adventures for them around
town.
