14:40 Jurish. The meeting with the village girls was heart-warming. The schoolgirls are still on winter vacation from school, and only a part of them appeared today for the activities.

We began with a Yoga lesson. After an hour of intensive physical activity we all felt warm. Avital coached us in the basic Yoga postures and the passage between them.

In the English lesson we learned the body parts and words of possession and finished by learning a song. We practiced the uses of the verb To Have in the present tense, in sentences which included the names of  the body parts.

We read…..

Jamie, the Yoga teacher joined the shift, after the village head asked us to try and find a man who would teach the village boys. In a conversation today between Jamie and the village head it was agreed that the Yoga learning group would be established, and that the activity would integrate English and Yoga studies.
