    Classes K-2 are now using these items to improve their fine motor skills. I work with these students on Monday afternoon along with Physical Therapist. We take each student one on one to connect and build. They're able to build strength in their hands and fingers. Students were so excited to see these multicolored objects. The different shapes and sizes that were changeable with their help. We're excited to report many students achieved improvement. Many of our students has reached their IEP goals.”

    Blessing In My Life.

    You are a true angel to our students. I'm more grateful to you than words can express.

  • Time For Some Action: Make Filmmaking Empowering.

    Funded Jan 19, 2022

    My first year teaching, I handed students a worksheet that diagrammed the camera and went over the function of each part. Although the students took copious notes, as soon as they had the cameras in their hands, it was like I'd taught them nothing.

    This is because many students learn best by doing. The next time I taught photography basics, I let the students handle the cameras right away. Photography Helps Us Communicate – Photographs help us share our memories with others. They're graduating.”

Performing arts are an essential method of communicating, learning, and emotions which is my reason for choosing ''20'' music and lyrics notebooks. We perceive the world through senses and arts allowing this population of students to understand, observe, explore and experiment. Through dance appreciating the history and culture brings traditional meaning to body movement and beauty. This is why I chose tutus and belly dance skirts. Playing musical instruments such as the drums brings shape to telling stories, objects, people, places, and feelings. Backdrops bring life and enhancement with visual impact that makes a presentation unforgettable.
