PARENTING WITH LOVE
AND LOGIC
Parenting is not
supposed to be hard but all too often it is. This program is for
parents, and teachers. It is a “user friendly” and often highly
successful program that is heavily wrapped in empathy but does not
shield children from consequences of their actions. It empowers
children to solve their problems and helps parents change their
behaviors to relieve stress and pressure. Of course, nothing works
all the time, but this anecodotal program and the expertise of your
presenter will, in a safe and non-threatening environment, invite
you to change the only person you can change, yourself.

SIGN LANGUAGE FOR
KIDS – RETURNING THIS FALL
We will learn some
sign language by working with sign language books, games and
videos. Handouts will be provided for students to keep. Parents
and siblings too young for class are welcome to sit in. Class is
geared for children ages 6 to 11. Contact instructor for allowable
exceptions. (410-326-3828) Sharon Kaltwasser, instructor, has over
15 years experience teaching sign language to children.
ADULT SIGN LANGUAGE – RETURNING THIS FALL
Students will learn
basic signing skills through instruction, interaction with each
other, and the text. The text is “The Joy of Signing” by Lottie
Riekehof; approximate cost is $22.00. Students will be responsible
for getting their own text, which can often be checked out at local
libraries also. The text is an excellent resource and can even be
used for future classes such as Intermediate and Advanced. Students
would not have to purchase another text for more advanced classes.
Text will not be needed for first class. Instructor: Sharon
Kaltswasser, BSed of the Hearing Impaired, BSed Elementary
Education.
SONG INTO SIGN –
RETURNING
THIS FALL
"Have you ever
wanted to try and put a favorite song into sign language? Come and
learn some techniques for doing just that. Prior knowledge of sign
language helpful, but not required. Access to sign language texts
helpful as well (library, purchase, etc.). Bring a song to the first
class so you can begin working on it. Text of the song as well as
the music itself will be very helpful. CD/tape player provided.
Contact instructor (410) 326-3828 with additional questions.
