Bridging The Gap $27.93 One of the greatest hurdles facing children with Autism is transitioning skills from one setting to another. Many of these students have a very hard time with change in setting and schedule. Drawing from the elements of Applied Behavioral Analysis therapy, Bridging the Gap uses essential skills and methods to allow children with Autism to transition into public school smoothly. This accessible curriculum uses ABA terminology and skills in a preschool schedule format. The lessons are designed to allow for a certain amount of flexibility, so that each element is appropriate for each student. All young children, regardless of developmental level, can gain from the social interactions and language skills. For those who are ready to mainstream from a more restrictive learning environment, the variety and layout of Bridging the Gap is designed to prepare for such a large transition. Each lesson is a bridge from therapy to a public school setting. The lessons are full of colorful crafts and exciting games developed to increase verbal and motor skills. Students will create art and acquire skills, all while heightening social awareness. With the routine containing such similar elements as traditional school, typically developing peers gain from following the curriculum as well. This combination of typically developing students and students with developmental delays creates an atmosphere of understanding, and prepares both groups for future diverse classes. As the children continue on their path of education, they will transition more smoothly and with greater success. |

Broadway Dance Center-Creative Movement For 3 and 4 Year Olds $49.99 A teacher’s most valuable resources are the tiniest dancers who toddle through the door. Teaching and keeping them is one of the foremost challenges of dance education. Veteran studio owner and teacher, Toni Noblett, will guide you through those first daunting days of class with advice and ideas that are practical, honest, and inventive. This video will give you the basic tools to plan a curriculum that features creative movement as the initial course of study for beginning dancers. It features games that will equip the youngest students to function in next year’s tap, ballet, or jazz dance class, and it encourages you to allow children to be children for at least another year…Toni Noblett’s background in dance education is substantial. For twenty-six years she ran a studio in Roxboro, North Carolina where dance classes for children and adults were crafted to instill an appreciation for the arts, self-discipline and respect. Classes included children with special needs, and these children became her mentors. Since 1989 Ms. Noblett has been on the staff of Jacques d’Amboise’s National Dance Institute in New York City. In 1998 she conceived and locally produced a project featured on CBS’s Sunday Morning with Bill Geist. She has taught children’s tap at BDC, and presently teaches for Rosie O’Donnell’ Rosie’s Broadway Kids. Her two children, Casey Noblett Callahan and Cassidy Noblett, are professional dancers and respected teachers. |

Camp Board Game $17.5 Welcome to the Great Outdoors! Camp is a game where both children & adults can play & learn fun facts about the great outdoors. The game is designed to grow with the player, starting at level one questions, which are primarily identification of animals. As the players increase in their knowledge about the outdoors, they grow into the higher level questions. A fun & educational game where parents & children can play against each other to get to Camp first. Each player picks a level card (level one being the easiest and level four being the hardest). The idea being that if you have a family with different aged children, say a 6 year old, a 12 year old, Mom and Dad and Grandparent, they all can play together at the level they choose. The object of the game is to get back to Camp first. Along the way to Camp, if your pawn lands on a green set of foot prints, you have to answer a Camp question card according to your level. If you answer the question correctly, you get to roll again. During the game, if you encounter the Go to Clubhouse space, you jump forward to the clubhouse and read a fun fact for all to hear. This is a good thing in the first half of the game; however, in the second half of the game, it takes you backwards. One more twist to the game is that hidden inside the Camp questions are 15 special questions with a compass icon on them. If you draw one of these questions and answer it correctly, you get awarded the compass card. This card enables you to use the short cut to Camp; however, there is only one compass card, so if someone else gets another of the 15 compass icon cards and answers the question correctly, they can take the compass card away. The mission of Education Outdoors is to reconnect families by allowing them to play together. Camp is fast paced and keeps everyone involved and on their toes. Suggested uses for Camp: Christmas gifts, birthday gifts, educating children about the outdoors, classroom games, gift for the |

Chapters: People From Carcross, Yukon, William Carpenter Bompas, Angela Sidney, Kate Carmack, How People Got Fire, Keish, Carcross Desert, Dawson Charlie, Carcross/tagish First Nation. Excerpt: William Carpenter Bompas (20 January 1834 9 June 1906) was a Church of England clergyman and missionary in northwestern Canada, first Anglican bishop of the Athabasca diocese, then of the Mackenzie River diocese and then of the Selkirk (Yukon) diocese as these dioceses were successively carved out of the original Rupert’s Land diocese. Born in London, England, he died in Carcross, Yukon. His wife Charlotte Selina (Cox) Bompas participated in his missionary work, and wrote Owindia: A True Tale of the Mackenzie River Indians, North-West America. William Carpenter Bompas was born on January 20, 1834 at Regent’s Park, London to father Charles and mother Mary Steele. It is thought that Charles Carpenter Bompas served as the inspiration for Charles Dickens’ Buzfux in The Pickwick Papers. It is thought that Bompas’ heritage lay in France, although members of the extended family resided in the United States and the United Kingdom. From 1844, a string of family deaths left the family in poor circumstances. When William was aged ten, in February 1844, his father Charles died, leaving his eight children. His eldest son, also named Charles, died in 1847. William’s early education was supplied by a graduate of Cambridge University. Partly due to his private tuition and a lack of socialisation, William was considered a shy boy, and in his spare time preferred to sketch buildings such as churches instead of participate in games. His tutor, a Mr. Elliott, believed Bompas to be of high intellect, writing: I never had a pupil who made such acquisitions of knowledge in so short … More: |

Deaf Daughter, Hearing Father $47.89 When Richard Medugno and his wife Brenda learned in 1993 that their17-month-old daughter Miranda was deaf, they grieved, as many hearing parents do. Soon, however, Medugno seized hold of the need to take positive action for Miranda. Deaf Daughter, Hearing Father recounts the remarkable story of their journey during the past fourteen years. Medugno first researched the best communication mode for Miranda. Quickly dismissing the speech pathology model, he and his wife chose ASL alone as the best, natural language for Miranda. He surrounded his daughter with opportunities to learn ASL, by arranging to meet deaf individuals and families, and also by hiring deaf babysitters. He also determined to learn ASL himself, to ensure communication with his daughter. As Miranda neared school age, Medugno spearheaded a transcontinental search for exactly the right school for her education. So that Miranda could attend the California School for the Deaf (CSD), the Medugno family moved from Toronto, Canada to Fremont, CA. In Deaf Daughter, Hearing Father, Medugno shares practical information on many of the common challenges faced by hearing parents. He provides a list of games that hearing and deaf children can play together, an important consideration for many families. His enthusiasm for all possibilities, from exploring the potential of video phones to helping stage CSD musicals, reveals his abiding devotion to Miranda. Such a foundation has enabled her to feel proud, confident, and happy in her pursuits. At the same time, Medugno recognizes that the rewards of having a deaf daughter are far greater than he could have hoped for or imagined. |
