This is a classroom in Timai camp (after we've re-arranged the room). You can see where I'm talking to the kids in the back. Kids on the right in the front are reading letters written by my students in NYC. Kids on the left are looking at photos. The only light coming in is the light from outside through the bamboo walls. These classrooms were nicer than some others. There are concrete floors. Yes, the words Speak English are written in big letters in the back of the classroom.
Hi Erin, I found your blog through your FB post and am looking forward to reading about your adventures in Nepal! DeLisa Brown
ReplyDeleteWow, Erin, what an adventure!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure this will help a lot with the kids who end up at the Internationals Network schools, like BIHS.
I was about to ask you more about the refugee situation, when I happened upon this really informative site. Maybe this will help others' curiousities too: http://www.photovoice.org/bhutan/index1.php?id=1
Best of luck in your work!
