Hello, everyone! I'll try to make this brief, as typing on these things can be a bit of a pain. [ but god help her if she did anything that put her face out there to more people than she was comfortable with... ]

My name is Ursula Callistis, and back home I was a teacher. Now as I'm sure you've all noticed, or at least heard, refugees from Dorchacht have come into this city. Some of you have been volunteering to build their shelters, but I had noticed there was an un-assigned building, and I've sort of taken it over as a space for them, but not as living space.

You see, a lot of the refugees are kids. Orphans, even. And I am going to convert that space into a classroom. The Coven has already agreed to help me with supplies and costs, so there's no worries there, but while I am an experienced educator, I'm still only one woman.

So! That's where you all come in! I'm looking for some volunteers to help take up some of the class schedule. Just let me know if you have any experience, what basic subjects you're willing to teach, and we can go from there!

And, just so it's clear, I appreciate any help at all, even if you're not taking on a class subject. These kids are really depending on us. So. Thank you.

I can offer an art class or literature if you're interested in either one of those.

[beariot]

Literature?

Hey, actually, do you think you could help with basic reading, too?

[ishisstrength]

I can.

Reading is a passion of mine and I've found some wonderful stories that would be a great interest to children.
I think the best way to learn is to be excited about it.

[beariot]

Excellent! I was really hoping I wouldn't be doing all of the reading and language skills lessons on my own.

[ishisstrength]

Then allow me to take some of the load off of you.

I hope it's alright that I haven't been formally trained as a teacher. I know I will do well.

[She really likes kids.]

[beariot]

Putting together lesson plans isn't as difficult as it sounds, and I'm more than willing to help out there. Plus there will be some assistants available!

[ishisstrength]

Then that sounds perfect.
Have you gotten much help? I might be able to wrangle a few others.

[beariot]

Enough help with the basics. Plus some music and physical education. But I could use another general education specialist, too. But I think I have a guy in mind, I just need to reach out to them.

[ishisstrength]

I think I have at least one person who would be willing to help. I can ask him if he doesn't reply to this himself.

Who do you currently have on the project? Anyone I know?

[beariot]

History is being handled by Rean Schwarzer, arithmetic by Towa Herschel, reading by you, and of course I'll be filling out empty spaces in basic education myself.

Elliot Craig is giving basic music education and Irhya Pendhula with the arts. Randy Orlando, Rich Goranski, and Emil Västerström are helping with physical education and various group building activities.

And of course Monika, my TA.

[ishisstrength]

I see. I don't know too many of them. I know Rich and Monika very well though. I'm glad to see that they are involved.

[beariot]

Maybe it's a little tricksy of me, but I planned to involve Monika from the start. I feel like this is the sort of thing that will be really good for her.

[ishisstrength]

I think so too and in this case, I also think that being a little tricksy is okay.

[beariot]

You do? Is she a friend of yours?

[ishisstrength]

She is. It'll be nice to work with someone I know.

[beariot]

Oh! It's excellent to get a chance to know one of her friends!

[ishisstrength]

I look forward to it. I am busy on the night of the full moon but let me know when we begin.
