March to the Beat of Your Own Drum

Who:
Blind students of all ages and their families
Where:
Colorado Center for the Blind,
2233 W Shepperd Ave. Littleton, CO 80120
When:
Saturday, April 24, 2021 from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM

It’s the return of the FAST! On Saturday, April 24 from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM, we will hold our first in-person FAST (Fun Activities & Skills Training) Program for 2021.

And what better way to kick it off then with a fun activity that involves music and movement. Join us for a mid-day session of cardio drumming with Julie, Stringball with Martin, and Soccer with Will. This activity will allow us to discuss and work on spatial awareness in a fun and exciting way.

We’ll rotate between activities, so you’ll be able to try all three. We plan on dry sunny weather so we can be outside, but if the weather forces us inside, we will have other activities planned for the indoors that will also permit us to be socially distanced.

Please RSVP by Thursday, April 22, 2021.

If you have any questions or need assistance registering, please contact Director of Youth Services Martin Becerra-Miranda at mbecerra@cocenter.org or by calling (303) 778-1130 Ext: 223

Ever Looked at a Tactile Picture of the Colorado State Bird?

Explore tactile examples of the state mammal, tree and more. Use a tactile outline and colorful air-dry clay to create the Colorado State Flag! It is all in this month’s Learning Box activity – a book about Colorado with five unique tactile graphics

Register by this Sunday and receive your Learning Box before April 25. We’ll read a short story, which you can get in 18 point large print and Braille. Along with the outline of Colorado’s flag, there will be Four tactile pictures with magnetic backing that students can insert into the book as we read.

This book and the activity are designed for elementary, middle and high school students who are blind or low vision.

When will this Learning Box activity occur?

April 25, 2021, from 2:00 to 3:00 PM.

Preregistration is required by Sunday, April 18 so that Learning Boxes can be prepared and shipped in time. Please register your student at the link below.
