JCCC, Activity Room Get Creative!! Home school Times Available!!! We are all born creative, but if we neglect to develop
and strengthen these skills, our creativity becomes inhibited. Did you know that
learning to draw is known to increase visual perception, increase concentration,
build confidence, and improves self-esteem? It also can improve hand-eye
coordination & fine motor skills and teach ways to make decisions and solve
problems. Come have fun and learn
basic drawing and painting techniques in a non-competitive and nurturing
environment. A variety of media will be used (watercolors, pastel, pencil, paint
markers etc). Program #: 275 Fee: $48.00 Ages: 8-12 Day (s): Thursdays

JCCC, Activity Room Spanish Program for Children Homeschool Times Available!!! The program will be open to children from ages
8-12 years old. Research shows that when children are exposed to foreign
languages at an early age they are more likely to speak as a native speaker in
the language. Children have an innate ability to acquire multiple
languages; they are curious, and able to imitate sounds perfectly. They are
open-minded, and unlike adolescents, they are not self-conscious about making
new sounds. They are not concerned about appearing silly while participating
actively. This natural ability diminishes with age. Take advantage of this
natural ability and enroll your child in this exciting, fun Spanish language
program. $10.00 book fee required
payable to the instructor on the first day of class. Program #: 277 Fee: $48.00 Ages: 8-12 Day (s): Wednesday Date (s): October 4-November 8 Time (s): 1:30-2:30 p.m. Location:
