La Puerta Abierta, February 18-20, 2019

This is our third year to return to the The Open Door School (La Puerta Abierta) located in the beautiful Santiago Atitlan.  As in the past this school continues to amaze, inspire, and educate us on the wonder of teaching in Guatemala.   The school now serves Preschool - 5th grade with the hope of adding a sixth grade classroom next year which would mean the following year La Puerta would have its first graduating class. We arrived with supplies, a smile and a strong desire to "engage" with the preschoolers/kindergartners.  We brought some shaving cream for a hands on sensory experience, which they loved.  By the way SHAVING CREAM according to the lovely teacher Chonita costs "mucho dinero" who knew!!!
