Cristina, you will be missed!
By: Holly Crim
It is with joy and sadness we announce that Profe Cristina has taught her last class with Makarios International this year. We send her off though with all our love and gratitude for having been such a vital part of Makarios for so long. She has been with Makarios since August 2006 and has been invaluable to us, the children she has served, and the surrounding communities. She will be greatly missed but we rejoice with her in new opportunities.

Profe Kendall & Profe Johan will together be taking over Profe Cristina’s class. Their first day as our official new teachers was February 16th. Kendall has been with Makarios since January 2009 and trained Johan when he first came on with Makarios as a teacher’s aide last October. Kendall and Johan work well together and the children love them! The kids are responding well to the the new classroom management and the transition appears to have been a fluid one.
Introducing Profe Kendall & Profe Johan!

Patrones in Profe Kim’s Class
By: Robin Inks
Profe Kim’s class is learning about patterns. She started with simple AB patterns (circle, triangle, circle, triangle, etc) and the kids caught on quickly! Ahh, it’s a good feeling when learning takes place!
After working together on the board, Kim gave them each their own worksheet to finish the pattern started.
Nicol Cristal finished hers!
As did Lisela
Wilsenci is tracing his name in the corner of the page
As is Yuniari. If you look next to Yunairi and Memo you’ll see that they each have their own crayons. Profe Kim had them decorate their own crayons holders and they each got a package of crayons to place in the holders. Now they are all responsible for their own crayons! It’s part of them learning to respect the school property and all that is within.

LIFE STORIES: Elijio Pascual
Elijio is one of our new students. He is in Profe Kim’s class with his neighbor and good friend Yuneci. Once he stopped crying, he found that he does enjoy coming to school. During recess he is always playing with the same small group of friends, running around, yelling and giggling. When asked about some of his favorites, Elijio said that he loves Jorge el Curioso (Curious George) and playing baseball and soccer. This is a picture of him singing before school; he’s too precious!
