A great time was had by all one day as we got together and worked on flannelgraph backgrounds. The students had recently attended a weekend workshop where they learned to use flannelgraph figures. Then the challenge was helping them learn to make the backgrounds. We are able to purchase flannel and oil pastels here in India, so they had the supplies they needed but lacked the know how. During their Christmas break, everyone who was able gathered together and spent a fund day working. The dining hall looked like an art classroom and the front door looked rather strange with the pattern taped to it. But it made for a fun day with lots of smiles, chattering, and laughter.
