A brief look at the origins and history of farming, not only in ENGLAND generally, 'but
including
LINCOLNSHIRE and the CAISTOR area.
We look at farming, both before and after Enclosure and try to show the origins and
development of various implements that made use of newer ideas materials and technologies as time went by and
were designed to suit the various land conditions farmers have.always .had to
contend with.
Historically, farms were the origins of villages, as people settled in an area: first for self- suffiency, then producing a
surplus to sell.
Very visual, with artefacts and farm implements kindly loaned from residents in the area, plus a 3- part video: The
Drought of 1976; Horse Power (both Animal and Mechanical) and A Farmer's Year.

DEAR FRIENDS
A huge thank you for sending us
money to buy a projector for the
Methodist school. We are amazed at
how many people contributed and
how quickly the amount was
collected! The need for good English
teaching here in El Salvador is
urgent, as more and more jobs are
only available to those who have
reached a competent level. There is
no national provision of English teaching until age 12,
so the Methodist school is unique in our town in offering a daily English
class from 3 years old, and we hope to give children a better chance of supporting themselves
and their families in the future by improving their job prospects.
We have bought one (a group coming from the US to work with the church brought it with them
– it was cheaper in Walmart than here!) and are now using it daily in our classes. We use a
curriculum called Genki English, developed by a British teacher working in Japan, which teaches
English through songs and visual games on a projector screen. The idea is that you don’t need
much space or resources, which is ideal for us, as we often have 29 four and five year olds in a
classroom as big as the Caistor primary school office! Most classes here are taught by rote, where children copy from
the board, so we hope by using music and visuals we can offer children who find it hard to read and write a different
way of learning. There is lots of money left over, with which we are planning to buy tactile resources for our classroom
(hard wearing toy animals, play foods, musical instruments and sets of dominoes/picture cards) and basic stationary.
So far we have bought folders, so the children can store their own work, and whiteboard markers which
the children use for working on little boards to save paper. We also teach at a project called ‘Infancia con Futuro’
(Children with a future) which works with vulnerable young people at risk of being recruited by gangs.
Gangs in El Salvador are currently killing 16 – 20 people a day, and often recruit children aged between 8 and 12 to
start working for them before they are old enough to be arrested and sent to prison. By giving children something to do
in the afternoon, they are less likely to be on the streets visible to gangs.
Thank you so much for your generosity, and for helping transform our teaching space into a fun exciting English
classroom!
Maura Cook and Paul Collins
