Hello Volunteers,
I have had quite a few emails over the summer as to how the program works and don't want people to feel intimidated when making the decision to volunteer. It is a wonderful program that was written by the previous coordinator and we would like to keep it going as much as possible but need the help of our wonderful parents to do so.
The program works by having a volunteer (typically a parent in their own child's classroom) go in once a month (or as often as the teacher and parent agree) and teach a short lesson followed by a coordinating art project. The lessons are all written based around what is currently being taught in cottage and must be followed as these lessons go with the curriculum. ALL supplies as well as the lessons being taught, are supplied. As a volunteer you coordinate with your child's teacher to choose the appropriate lesson, let us know as soon as possible so we can add you to the calendar and get the supplies delivered to the classroom in time for the lesson. You then return the supplies once the lesson is over and we will put it all away. If you are teaching more frequently in the classroom (more then once a month) we can supply an additional lesson that still follows cottage curriculum.
If anyone has any questions in regards to the program or about volunteering, please feel free to comment below.
Art has been proven to aid in the development of young brains and we would love to keep our program alive.
