Potatoes and PORCUPINES H
ow do you turn a potato into a porcupine? That’s exactly what the children were discovering when I visited a Life Hope Center in the country of Georgia.
I
t was the children’s second lesson about fruits and vegetables, and they were learning the English names of the produce while transforming them into animals and modes of transportation.
T
hese children attend English classes at a Life Hope Center, or urban center of influence. Their teacher, Ginta, is a volunteer from Latvia. She uses interactive teaching methods to keep the children engaged. She even includes thei r parents in the action!
