Classic
Tales 'n Tunes LLC provides the finest in training for educators and
childcare providers. Classes are provided at your location throughout the DC and Baltimore metro
areas. We are currently offering three different trainings, as follows.
"Stories, Songs and
Signs for the Very Young" is a 2-hour integrated arts program that
teaches a combination of techniques to spark a love of learning in early
childhood. Participants learn how to engage infants and toddlers in
storytelling, singing, fingerplays, puppetry and other expressive arts while
using basic American Sign Language to increase vocabulary and communication
skills.
The
same program may be taught entirely in Spanish and is called "Canciones,
Cuentos y Señas para los más Pequeños". This course includes all the same activities as the English course, including the American Sign Language.
Our
newest training is called "Signing Fun for Everyone!" In this
class, educators learn the value of using American Sign Language to
enhance communications in the classroom, how to learn and how to teach
American Sign Language, and are taught and receive materials for 100
common signs.
In Fairfax County, our courses may qualify for credit in CDA areas II, V and/or VI. The first two programs are also approved for training in the State of Maryland, and they qualify for 2 hours of credit in any combination of these domains: Special Needs, Community, or Curriculum. The third program will be submitted to the State of Maryland soon for approval. Our exceptional treachers are approved Core of Knowledge Trainers in the State of Maryland.
Contact us with your needs, and we'll customize a
program for your school or organization.
