Today we used your doodle lesson and it was WONDERFUL!!!<BR/>I was totally amazed that everyone was able to doodle a dragonfly (except for one client who is really in a bad way). Most of these poor seniors have some form of dementia - mostly Alzheimer's - and can barely remember how to write their names. <BR/><BR/>I used a chalkboard to demonstrate the steps and waited until everyone 'doodled' the line or circle before moving on to the next step. Afterwards, I had them decorate their dragonflies with colored pencils. They LOVED doing this project and have requested more! I took pictures of their work but I'm having trouble retrieving them from the disk to which I copied. <BR/><BR/>Tomorrow I will stop by the day care again to take a photo of their 'gallery' with my own camera to show you what you inspired.<BR/><BR/>Please tell me which of your online scribble classes cover the simplest doodles so we can do this project again.<BR/>Thanks again!<BR/>hugs, JoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8504505.post-1154498865281884692006-08-02T00:07:00.000-06:002006-08-02T00:07:00.000-06:00I did it!
