Film Clip of Outer Island Students


This is a short clip of children in a joint Kindergarten - First Grade class on the Island of Asor, Atoll of Ulithi, The students are copying sentences from a Dr. Suess book. The lighting is poor, as Asor does not have electricity. The children are lying on the concrete floor because it is cool (and the school has only a few chairs).

The library at Asor’s Community Elementary School (ACES) has been developed through the Habele Outer Island Education Fund's public school library project and the hard work of Peace Corps Volunteers. Check out www.habele.org for more info! Please consider donating to Habele in order to expand library development in the Outer Islands of Yap State, the most remote area of Micronesia.
