School Kits
In many countries these kits are the only educational
resources available. Often there are no books, or even classrooms. Classes are
mobile or held in the open air. Often students must write down everything the
teacher says or writes on a board. Their teacher’s knowledge and their own
notes are their only textbooks. They have difficulty learning without the basic
tools in this kit, which is designed for a variety of ages.
