Progress in Haiti and with our Contributing Artists
School Everywhere!
Progress in Haiti and with our Contributing Performers
leaps and bounds on.
The School Everywhere! Team led by Madame Marie-Marthe Balin Franck Paul in Port-au-Prince is now into video of their Lessons. They've completed seven of 25 Modules for first-year students from the textbook Mon Livre Unique. Each audio and video Module from the 243-page textbook is about 25 minutes long. The Team is on its way to making Universal Literacy available
across Haiti through audio and video Lessons.
​
At the same time, artists in the United States have contributed tracks of poems and songs and music as
'Lagniappe for Learning'. School Everywhere! now has
a poem/track from John Sinclair and his New Orleans Blues Scholars; a Spiritual from Cole Williams, 'The
Tyger' by William Blake, and 'Found' by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. All of this first batch of the Lagniappe can be heard on bandcamp.
​
Check out below excerpts from Module 1 of the 25
Lessons. Now a first-year student anywhere, anytime,
can become literate through audio and video that's completely mobile, thanks to Madame Paul and the
Team of students and teachers in Port-au-Prince!
Some of our Favorite People in the Universe are among the first round of Performers of Lagniappe for Learning
in the School Everywhere! program--David Amram, Jonathan Richman, John Sinclair, and Cole Williams.
