In this one time live class students will make their own finger paint using starburst candy. Adult support will be necessary, because we will be using the stove to melt the starburst. After we have made our finger paint we will finger paint a masterpiece. Children will practice their fine motor skills while unwrapping the starburst, learn about mixing colors and have fun painting with candy. This is a multisensory activity (the paint smells amazing) and is great way to use up some of that Halloween candy. *Note* the class length may vary die to the time it takes to make the finger paint and how many students are enrolled.
Learning Goals
Students will engage their senses of smell, touch and sight in this project.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello my name is Ms. Maya. The classes I teach are social skills, kinder readiness and support, classes about horses, animals, plants, and mushrooms. I am sure I will be adding to this list as time goes on.
I have worked with special needs children for six years, three of those years as an elementary special education teacher. I have a bachelor's degree in political science with an emphasis in international relations. I am a certified teacher in the state of Idaho. Prior to working in education I worked for a non-profit doing native plant restoration in Oregon.
I have had horses in my life from the beginning. I developed this love of horses with my first shetland pony. I went on the show at western pleasure events. This changed to english, which led to pony club for several years. I minored in equine science in college and apprenticed with a natural horsemanship guru. I enjoy working at liberty with my horses and trail riding now. I have a love for mustangs, especially the wild ones. I am fortunate to live where their wild horses and enjoy observing them. I also have two Bureau of Land Management (BLM) mustangs and one spanish/kiger mustang.
I enjoy teaching children of all ages. I feel that it is important to recognize that children learn at different rates and through different styles. Learning should be a fun and exciting experience for children. I strive to create this atmosphere in my classroom. I love fostering creativity and critical thinking in children.
I have a very energetic two year old son who keeps me young. I also have three horses (mustangs), three dogs, three ducks, three cats and two chickens; I love animals!Reviews
