Handbook Time

Handbook time was another learning experience for everyone involved. We divided up into groups and used the cabins and chapel to practice verses. Most children in Zambia can not read so in the fourth and fifth grade group Patricia used the listen and repeat method to teach the motto and key verse. She would say some and the children would repeat. But she didn't just read it - she spoke with passion and conviction and the children modeled her. By the end they were almost yelling! The younger children had to be divided into two groups because there were so many of them. Riley and Fredrick took one group and Esther took the other. Again, the listen and repeat method was used.
