CONNECTGrowing smiles, mending spirits, engaging children in their lives

Welcome to the first edition of Connect. It is our privilege to serve your

children and all of you. You give us the opportunity to be a part of your

schools learning, inspiration and laughter! Thank you. In this newsletter,we want to bring back to you what you share with us. Our goal is that it

will be a place to learn, to be inspired and to laugh. We will bring forth

ideas to help a child become a confident communicator, stories to

bring smiles to your faces and knowledge to continue the cycle of

learning. Together we will grow a smile, mend a spirit and engage a

child in their life.

In each edition you will find common headings including Todays Topic,

Whats Up?, Around the Water Cooler and more.

This section will generally focus on speech and language informationthat is relevant to you and the children in your school. Todays Topic is:

Communication. Wikipedia defines communication as: transferring

information from one entity to another. And yet when we are

communicating with each other, it is not a simple transaction. It is a

conversation. We are sharing our thoughts, ideas, dreams, fears and

oys! With or without words, communication is the way in which we

connect. Facial expressions, gestures, sign language, words and even

technology, are ways in which we can communicate. As we begin this

school year, let us connect to each other. Let us help a child learn to

communicate their ideas, thoughts, dreams, fears and joys in whatever

way possible. Let us feel the power of communication.
