Gambia

I went in a classroom, spoke first with the teacher, if I could come in. I ended up disrupting the class.

Ironically the class was in English. Of course the kids were fascinated with the stranger at the back of the classroom.

Now they were speaking English words for me.

The teacher was very good in keeping the students speaking the English words.

I like to go into schools and classrooms and sit at the back of the room and observe.

everal other teachers came into the room when they saw me in the classroom. One asked me if I was married. Nope I am single. She could not understand why. Next thing I know she says, "Marry Me.. I have 2 children." Fastest romance on record...ha!

Homework on the wall

Some parents coming for their students.

Most of our group had gone into a classroom with the Principal of the school. I choose to go in a classroom alone. I was the lucky one. I had my own classroom.

Kids started pouring out of classrooms everywhere to see the strangers at the end of the class day.

Each of these photos is of a different group of students waving goodbye.

The Principal of the school waving goodbye to us along with the students.

These are high school students.

These are some small businesses just down the street from the school as we left the village.

Notice the clothing colors on the couple talking.
