For an (individual) referral visit: always carry printed, laminated, and cut cards in your bag. These cards should be shown during one-on-one interviews with the godchildren or in very small groups.

For an entire group: print one image set per participant: print one set of images for each participant.

It's a game of putting images in chronological order. If children are having trouble understanding, why not introduce examples. 

For instance, you can use

o  six images that depict a fishing story

o  six images of a harvest in the rice field

o  five images that remind you of the EDM back-to-school day

o  four images that illustrate an activity you carried out with your referrals

 This will help enhance and diversify the content of their letters.

1) You can try this cool activity with young people or small groups.

o  Grab some photos and have them put these to understand the story. This can be a fun icebreaker for one-on-one meetings.

o  After that, you can show them some photos related to an event in their country. A

o  Ask them to put these in order and write a letter about it, including their impressions. Just keep in mind that we want to keep the writing brief and clear, so let's limit it to one page.

o  When they're done, we can send the letter to the sponsor. How awesome is that?

2) If you're working with a big group of kids

o  Print out each photo in A4 size.

o  Tape them to a wall

o  Have the kids write a letter describing what's going on in each photo.

o  When they're done, put the letters next to the photos

o  Send the whole thing to the sponsor. Easy peasy!

You can link the images to your daily life and use them to break the ice and start a conversation.

o  Use cards for a simple activity suitable for children and students

o  Allow writing on both sides of the letters

o  Keep it concise to maintain the interest of sponsors and translators

o  Limit to one front of writing and one drawing on the back.
