Nicaragua Day 4

I spent my day today at Tesoros de Dios (Treasures of God). This is a school that serves children with special needs. The children come from local families. There are very little resources to meet the needs of these children. In order to help as many children as possible, each child only comes for twice a week for three hours each time. Still, there are children on a waiting list. There is so much need!

Thank you for praying for the workshop today. It definitely helped as it seemed to go very well. All of the Tesoros staff attended as well as a couple professors from a university here in Managua. Everyone was great to work with. The bonus was that I could often understand their responses and discussions even though it was all in Spanish.

Here are pictures of the afternoon session at the school. One of the things we did in the morning session was identify a couple children that we would collaborate on during the afternoon, so I observed and met with teachers and helped them design interventions or assessments for particular children.

One of the methods they use is therapeutic horsemanship.

I also went to Wendy's house for lunch.
