The past three weeks

I have been fairly busy over the past three weeks: wrapping up school, speaking with teachers, and preparing for my final presentation. However, I have also been doing a lot of work I'd like to share with you now.

Since I last posted I've been spending a great deal of time with the students at Abilities Family Learning Center and have had some very interesting experiences. I have worked with an intelligent young man who's cursive is grades above his print, an adorable six year old dyslexic who is responding very well to forming his letters in play doh, a thoughtful boy with a love of all things aquatic, and an eager young girl with an "interesting" pencil grip. These students have taught me so much in the short time we have been together like how to see the world like a child again and consider a new perspective. In addition to working with the children I have created a poster and begun to advertise for the summer months. I have also taken and cleared a TB test to allow me to volunteer in the school district.
