Computers Help Class Overcome Language Barrier...

One of the schools where I teach Imagine Tomorrow Computer Classes has a new student who only speaks Spanish. Her classroom teacher was concerned that she may not understand much about the class, but agreed that the smaller group might help her connect with her new friends. After watching the Video Voicemail, we headed off to our computers where Alexa was a star! She would repeat the colors and shapes in Spanish. By the end of the class, all the students were talking about estrellas verdes (green stars) which the children focused on in the lesson today! She has had difficulty making friends because they don't understand eachother, but she left the computer room holding hands with another girl in the class!

Harvest Children's Academy

Harvest Childrens Academy will be embedding our program starting in January 2011.  After a parent survey, 100% of the parents wanted our program put into the curriculum.  We are so excited to have the kind of support and we look forward to working with this GREAT group of kids!
