Training for Saludos Niños Teachers

Miracles in Action, a charity in the United States, introduced Saludos Niños to the "Aula Magica" (Magical Classroom) program.  Aula Magica helps teachers to improve classroom organization and management.

The Saludos Niños teachers were keen to get involved with the program so Sofia, the program manager, visited them in Panyebar to provide some training.  As a follow-up, 2 of our teachers (Juana and Lucy) travelled to Antigua for a more intensive 3-day training in July with teachers from various regions of Guatemala.

Here's a few pictures of our teachers in action!
