Hello Jo, I'm a school teacher from Nepal. I run a small school for poor family children. Hope your advice can be helpful for me. I'm trying my best to satisfy the need of the students. Our classrooms are really withyout materials. We have blackboard and dusty chalk. We can't afford dust free chalk or white boards and markers. They are costly. And students have woodern benches and desks (not so comfortable),The floor is sometimes dusty. We dn't have well decorated classrooms. We lack paper and crayons or more office materials for decoratin. And students really lack school supplies like pens/pencils, crayons, notebooks, and so on. very few of they bring such supplies regulary. I wish school could supply such basic things for the students. I'm trying my best to find some sponsors for the school supplies. one of my friend Tina sent some notebooks, paper, pencil, crayons and some sweets for the chlildren. With that help our students have started learning to draw, paint and do more. Hope your suggestions will also facilitate me to run the classes well.
