Jeryl Payne: Teaching Central America All Year Long

I teach second grade in a part of Alexandria where many of the students' families are from Chirilagua in El Salvador. In fact, so many families are from this small town that the neighborhood is called Chirilagua. I use resources from Teaching for Change and the Teach Central America website from the beginning until the end of the school year, and I encourage my colleagues to do the same.—Jeryl Payne, teacher, Alexandria City Public Schools
