The year with the children began with a work strongly focused on identities. For this reason, the educators developed various educational projects with which they worked.
The project, this is how we are, sought to encourage girls and boys to identify their peers and the group, trying to get girls and boys to recognize their newcomers and affirm with those who have been there since last semester. All of us are different and equal in rights, sought to motivate girls and boys the recognition of cultural diversity through respect for difference and appreciation of the particularities of each person. Lastly, Our Language sought to strengthen children's indigenous identity through the collective sharing of words in the Tzeltal and Tzotzil languages.
Children's contact with their indigenous identity, recognizing who they are and where they come from, is central to their development. Therefore, from Melel, we seek that, the knowledge, recognition and understanding of who they are, are at the center of the actions we carry out.
