BEAMS Guyana Worksheet Segment
Guyana has launched the Basic Education Access and Management Support (BEAMS) Project in an effort to raise the quality of its basic education. Funded by the Inter-American Development Bank, the BEAMS Project aims to improve literacy and numeracy attainment throughout Guyana, but particularly in its most underserved, impoverished regions. The Interactive Radio Instruction programs support core mathematics instruction for Grades 1 and 2. This segment provides an example of how to use a worksheet in the classroom by listening to the radio teacher.
