Students should not have any experience working with string. They will need to bring string to class. It is suggested that their string be between 36 and 55 inches long. We will learn by doing and watching the teacher demonstrate the moves. This is excellent practice for fine motor skills. The picture on the class shows a more difficult puzzle than we will be completing in this class. Other classes will be offered with more difficult tricks as time progresses. No students under the age of 6 please.
Learning Goals
To be able to do "Cat's Whiskers" on their own.

Teacher expertise and credentials
New Mexico Teaching Certificate
Bachelor's Degree in Education from Brigham Young University
I graduated in 1983 with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education. I enjoy teaching people of all ages. I have experience teaching in a regular classroom, special-ed pull-out classroom, and gifted pull-out as well as 3 years of on-line teaching experience with two different ESL companies.
I have traveled to 49 of the 50 states and have lived in seven of them. I have also traveled in Central and South America, including a trip through the Panama Canal.
I love history, National Parks, data, traveling, music, and crafts.
Most of my experience has been teaching gifted elementary children in pull-out programs. I also can individualize instruction for the needs of your learner if you prefer 1:1 instruction.
If you have taken any of my classes and are interested in private tutoring, I am happy to offer that.
I am also Mrs. Claus during the holiday season. Yes, I am married to Santa!
