Fruit for Thought

Mangoes here cost 50-100 Tanzanian shillings, depending on where you buy them. I have about 50 students in my class. If I bough each one of them a piece a fruit, it would cost me no more than $4. Almost every day a bicycle stops buy the school with a huge basket overflowing with mangoes and sells them at only 50 shillings….which would cost me less than $2. I asked Jacqueline today if it would be appropriate to give each child a mango…..so I think either tomorrow or next week we’ll be having a mango party in my class! (My real plan, of course, is to do this for every class here….wouldn’t want the other kids to feel left out!)
