I took a few years off regularly working with children to get my Etsy shop
going, so I could sell my ceramics internationally, but now I'm excited
to use my skills with children once again. Last spring I taught of a
series of Mindfulness workshops with 12 year olds as part of the
Well-Being program at the
Benjamin Franklin International School in
Barcelona. I'm pleased to be working in their Primary after-school
program teaching bilingual language arts to the youngest students in the
school and sharing my love of children's literature, song and crafts
with them.
I am also on their list of substitute teachers.
Before school started I teamed with a friend from my ceramics studio
and we worked day-care the faculty’s children at BFIS. We had lots of
fun. I’ve included photos of the mural and spiders the children made
after we read
Anansi the Spider:a Tale from the Ashanti by Gerald McDermott. This book is always a big hit with children.
