During the last year when most countries have seen periods of confinement and people have had to limit their time spent outside, books have proved to be powerful tools to combat isolation, reinforce ties between people, expand our horizons, while stimulating our minds and creativity. In some countries the number of books read has doubled.
Covid-19 pandemic has been over a year, students of SD Cibeurem do not study at school but at their homes and two times a week they meet their teachers online. Students get bored easily, and they also shouldn’t hang out with friends outside the home often.
To help students not to get bored and stay excited, Goldteak donated story books and science books. They take turns reading and are still monitored by the teacher. They were also given several activities related to the natural surroundings, take care the environment by planting trees and collecting plastic garbage so they make their village is free from garbage pollution.
“Fairy tales are more than true, not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” (Neil Gaiman)
