Wrap Up and Send Them Out Workshop

The schools demonstrated their understanding of Participatory teaching methods by presenting and analyzing each others presented model lesson.
We taught more about lesson planning and phonics.
We equip them with our Transformation and Education Manual, Bible and A Life Worth Living book by Nicky Gumbel.

3 Ministry of Education staff participated in the workshop.

I asked the leader what is the greatest training need for Liberian teachers. She said, moral and good character. She said classroom management and participatory education is good, but they need moral education. She says many of the teachers teach only when an inspector is there.

Another Ministry of Education staff member said that unlike UNICEF and other non government children's services, Mercy Ship's, Child Development Program takes the time mentor the teachers.
