About

Poverty in early life taught me that education is the only instrument that can eliminate it. My dream for my life is to become a doctor. I will get there through working with teachers and students who have experience in science subjects, and by studying hard. I will make sure that improvement in studies take the first priority. I will work with other students and share ideas with them. I felt especially proud when I passed the Standard Seven national examination. Happiness in my life would be to succeed in my studies.

Hi Students!

I just read all the journal entries I have received since October. Such wonderful letters! I am so impressed by how mature and articulate you have become. I’m realizing that I have now been reading some of your journals for 5 years. When I look at your photos, I don’t recognize the child I first knew. You are teenagers now.
I especially love the stories that some of you told in your journals. Moral tales, I call them.

So congratulations for working so hard. I’m hoping you will achieve your goals, go to a university if you want, and become productive members of your community, and able to help others as you have been helped.

I am enjoying retirement. My age of 76 is bringing on a bit of health problems, like arthritis, but I keep active physically and don’t let it stop me from doing what I love to do.

I read a lot. I travel. I go to jazz concerts in San Francisco. I would love to return to Kenya and Tanzania for a visit. I’d love to visit your school. Maybe it will happen. Who knows?

So keep up the great efforts. I know it can’t be easy, but this is such a wonderful opportunity.

Very fondly, Susan

Hello Jenny,I am here by explaining about climate change.
What Is Climate?
Climate is the average weather of a place over many years. It includes average temperatures. It also includes average
precipitation. The timing of precipitation is part of climate as well. What determines the climate of a place? Latitude
is the main factor. A nearby ocean or mountain range can also play a role.
Latitude and Climate
Latitude is the distance north or south of the equator. It’s measured in degrees, from 0° to 90°. Several climate
factors vary with latitude.
Latitude and Temperature
Temperature changes with latitude.
