Starting in Term One I’m very excited to say that Room 14 will again be working with the adults at the Idea Center. The Idea center is a day center for adults with physical and mental disabilities.
Our Goals are:
1st Is to overcome personal fear or awkwardness of being around individuals with mental and physical.
2nd To work with the Idea staff to identify activities in which both the adults and students can benefit from, such as reading.
3rd The students will create/build resources for the adults to use and benefit from, such as sensory boards.
You can visit the Idea website at: Idea Centre
Plan: We will stack tyres on top of each other. We will paint the tyres bright colours will big shapes/designs like stripes and poka-dots.
- Will have a planter full of lavender for SMELL
- Will have a planter full of colourful plants for SIGHT
- Will have different textures of plants in a planter for TOUCH
- A wind chime for SOUND
In charge of designing and building are: Richard, Braxton and Luke.
STEP 1.We got the tyres from a man who works at the Idea center.
STEP 2.We asked Mr. Macmillan for paint that we needed to paint the tyres.
STEP 3.We painted four tyres, two yellow tyres and two purple tyres.
STEP 4.We gave it to the idea people and they were very happy.
