Students in Mosaic will begin a new integrated of study this week. Using the Changing Perspectives curriculum the students will participate in five different three day long workshops where they will learn about specific disabilities and what it is like to live with them. The goal of this unit is to teach about taking a new perspective about differences and learning to build empathy and compassion. Students will also get to read, write, draw, create, and act!
For our culminating experience we will hear from different guest speakers who live with a disability. We will also work with students in Swift house to prepare for our Disability Awareness Day on June 9th. On this day you will be invited to come and go through a series of simulated events lead by your children. Stay tuned for more information about this wonderful learning opportunity and don't forget to follow us on Instagram @wcsmosaicmoments
