    3510 Trip Tales, Haiti #3

    Read part #1. Read part #2. In addition to working construction jobs, many of the team members also offered special classes for the children at the school--art classes, tin whistle classes, perspective drawing classes and a bicycle repair clinic. My husband taught the upper grades perspective drawing and he says they were outstanding students who caught on very quickly. Most classes had a translator, but one class didn't (the students were all learning English) and he said they had no problem. He'd prepared a multi-page handout ahead of time for the 75 students.


    On Friday the children performed with their tin whistles. A red shirt indicated academic excellence.

    The bicycle repair clinic was very popular. Bicycles are a major means of transportation.
