THE VISIT

“El Asoleadero” Kindergarten

“El Asoleadero” Village

“El Rosario” Sanctuary

Coordinates: 19.5771915 -100.3033422

For a few decades now, every one of our smallest villages has had a kindergarten center and an elementary, middle, and high school close to home.

“We teachers, working rather far from the center of our own villages, so appreciate the visit of a program like Symbolic Migration! Even though we count on the most necessary tools and facilities to work, additional material, like these beautiful books you have brought to us, is invaluable!”

Elementary and middle school levels attend classes from 8 am to 1 or 2 pm. Kindergarten level attends classes from 9 am to 12 or 1 pm.

On the return to school, students bring their own lunch prepared at home. The few schools offering lunch in their own dining room before the pandemic, have organized parent committees to run this service again. These schools provide meals professionally counseled in nutrition by our educational authorities.

A brief talk to children was presented on the basic function of a forest mentioning trees, plants, monarchs, and the main pollinators as sources of protection and food. This was enough for children to understand how precious nature is, and how it should be cherished and protected.
