The Muskoka Foundation is now accepting orders for the Buen Pastor photography program calendars! 100% of the proceeds after costs will go back to Buen Pastor and to the girls that participated in the recent Photo Program taught by Eric V. Ibarra. To purchase a 2011 calendar filled with vibrant photos of Guanajuato, go to http://www.themuskokafoundation.org/2011-calendar Some of the new books and one of the educational games made possible by the Ashland Rotary grant have arrived. The girls loved the educational puzzle and immediately started working on it. Each puzzle consists of a single word spelled out and an image of the word. The little ones will be spelling “pato” or duck in no time. Each book was carefully chosen for this set of girls. The one in the photograph is of a jealous older brother who steals his younger brother’s pacifier or chupon. Then there is a story of an adorable wombat who sleeps a lot and loves carrots. Not only are the books great for the girls in terms of learning how to read, practicing patience and developing listening skills, and developing fortitude, they’re a wonderful opportunity for volunteers to practice their Spanish, learn tenses, and develop a relationship with the girls using books as vehicles. Everyone wins. |
