Other Details

Parental Guidance
Depending on your learner's abilities, you will have to prepare the materials for your learner so they are able to start the activity with the teacher. You may also need to support your learner in the art activities. An example is providing them with paint, glue or maybe cut up the tissue paper for patchwork pictures. You will be given a study plan and activity booklet at the beginning of each week. Sometimes we may also do some movement (for example making shapes with our bodies), which you can supervise.
