News from Sanskriti International School

Jasmine, Hayley, and Justine have just completed our second day at Sanskriti International School! Jasmine and Hayley are teaching in first grade classes while Justine is teaching in a preschool class at Sanskriti. Today, Jasmine was able to bring Legos to her 1st grade class which were a big hit! It was awesome to see how engaged the students were with them! We have also been learning about health, how to take care of pets, and today, we practiced drying off dishes. In the afternoon, Justine and her class practiced making three-letter words in English. The children also enjoyed naming things that started with various letters, which led us into reading the A,B,C book by Dr. Seuss! They really enjoyed reading the book and laughed at the silly rhymes. An average Tuesday incudes swimming time at the local Recreation Center. Hayley and her class spent quite some time splashing around and learning to kick while floating in the water! It was very fun swimming and a unique feature of some Nepali schools!
Constructing and building with our Legos. Shoutout to Julian Cabeles and family for donating them. The students loved them and can’t wait to play with them again! J


Jasmine, Hayley, and Justine had the amazing opportunity to visit the Monkey Temple while on our way back from Sanskriti! This was truly remarkable seeing the architecture and the intricacy of the painting on the Temple’s Buddhas!
