Shukrani makes my day!

We have had some great teaching days this week.  The kids were writing short little stories and struggling with the whole idea.  We gave them some ideas for topics and an example - most of the kids wrote a few sentences about school or family .... and then our sweet little Shukrani made our day.  She is very petite and extremely sweet - also smart and a hard worker.  Her story was about the animals in Tanzania.  Very outside the box for the group and very brave of her.   It was even more cool since few of the kids have ever seen any of the animals that TZ is famous for and some don't even recognize them from a photo.  Shukrani did say that elephants eat meat but I say...that's what editors are for!  She was so proud of the story and the kids were very impressed when she put it on the board - a great day for sure!
