End of September, 2007

The month flew by so fast, it's already October. This last week, Noel, the kindergarten teacher I work with, and I took a stroll around the village with the students to take pictures of the students with their pets. We were to use the pictures for writing projects. It was a fun adventure and its amazing what names the students come up with for their dogs names. It seemed to make the students write more when a picture was included for the writing. The junior high and highschool are getting ready for NYO, and the Chefornak school eskimo dance team is already practicing each friday for an hour and a half. Our school is sort of running out of supplies because our school supply barge that usually comes during the summer dropped off our school supply's at a neighboring village Kipnuk for some reason and some of the supplies had to be brought over here by plane.
Our scenery is starting to get fall colors and with the rain finally slowly going away we are having great rainbows appear in the sky. It was fun to watch them during a recent boat ride. Hope all is well with everyone. Take care now! Bye!

Those pictures of the kids with their pets would make an excellent subject for a video. I'm not sure you'd be able to publish it online without permissions from the students' parents, but it would be fun to show it to the kids and even have them help you create it.

Just a thought...
