Week Two (at the GNAT Institute)

 It's tricky to find new things to write about since this trip to Ghana is almost the same as last July! I feel both savvy on Ghanaian culture (esp. in Education) and so I'm good to go! But I also feel like staying for a long time, continuing to help Ghanaian partners succeed in improving the conditions of their teachers and especially wanted to help improve the quality education for all Ghanaian children. Simple things mean so much. Oh my, what I take for granted in Ontario...... I worked with my dear friend Lord again this year for the first week. This week I am working with Justice who is also very lovely, with a humourous style that puts the participants at ease. I have noticed this year, when the participants have come from the four northern regions of Ghana, that they are hungry for the offered professional development. They are engaged and enthusiastic--which of course is contagious! I look forward to each class, digging in to talk shop with other teachers.     ...
