Depending on the specific letters for that day, I may ask the students to bring something to share with the class. For example, if the letter is T t I may ask students to bring their favorite toy or teddy bear. It doesn’t have to be a tangible object it can be as simple as a picture. Any letter collage projects that we may do I will provide you a template. We will not be using a scissor in this class. There is no cutting in this class so please have all materials precut and ready before class begins. Refund Policy: All Ongoing classes have a standard refund policy: "Cancel subscription at any point, no refund for past subscriptions. Payments can be refunded within 24 hours of purchase.
