Vida Elementary School Chamché (PM) grade one

Your class is learning a lot this year! In Grade 1, the students are learning to express worship and praise to the Lord voluntarily in their devotions, demonstrating gratitude through their attitudes. They are learning to recognize the Lord as their creator, and they exhibit a keen interest in discovering and developing the gifts bestowed upon them by God. They are learning that obedience is reflected in their positive behavior both within and outside the school, and they are learning compassion and repentance in the face of mistakes. In Grade 1, the students are exploring the initial stages of literacy and mathematical operations. They are learning to recognize and write numbers from 1 to 100, identify and trace alphabet letters, and understand consonant and vowel combinations. They are continuing to learn aspects of personal care and hygiene

Vida Elementary School Chamché (PM)

This class is part of Impact Ministries' Vida Elementary School Chamché (PM) located in Tactic and has been in operation since 1993. The school has been the focus for many short-term mission teams who will remember the remarkable transition that has taken place as the original facility expanded. It now provides an elementary program for both a morning and an afternoon shift. We opened this afternoon shift in 2013 because we were having to turn away many children due to lack of space in the classrooms. There are approximately 160 students from Preschool to Grade 7. Many of the children come from families with difficult home lives. A lot of the parents don't have permanent work and many of them are not Christians. Many of these children walk a long way to get to school every day and by the time they get home in the evening it's already getting dark outside. Our desire is that the students and teachers would continue to learn more about the Lord, that they will become leaders with the fear of God in their hearts, bringing the love of God to their families.
