Behind the mask activity…. We worked up to this by learning describing words and writing words about each other. Then the kids could choose what they wrote about themselves…
Some images from the free Moss Graffiti workshop this morning at the South London Botanical Institute. Beer is the important ingredient when it comes to making moss paint - and of course a nice cup of tea and cake to help with the process... check out: www.slbi.org.uk and www.zoeburt.com
Me having decided that I need to get some practice myself at speaking and trying to express what I am experiencing!
Amazing visit to Brooklyn - stumbled across the boulevard and then could take a ferry up 34th st because someone gave me a map with ferry routes on just as I was thinking about ferries - yay :)
Travelling on the NYC Subway
A bit of research for delivering learning activities related to the NHM London's exhibition...
Fort Tyson Park on the way to The Cloisters - beautiful & perfect day for it!
September 2016
Emmie, Keith and I (as Sound Tracks) had a great time leading a workshop at the 2016 Mental Wealth Festival. The festival was held at City Lit, Covent Garden and was jointly hosted by City Lit and Beyond Words. We had the opportunity of meeting a variety of professionals in the world of learning disability and presented some of the ideas from our new sessions: Around the World in 80 Minutes.
Keep an eye out for it next year - as I am sure there will be lots of interesting talks and workshops at no or a low fee.

I'm doing #100happydays - I think I'm ok at noticing things and will try and make it more museum/career orientated, but with space for other happy things :) Doesn't mean my life will be all blue skies- but today is! I did feel a bit resentful/confused of/by the sudden sun these past mornings because I felt so tired but the sun has won me over today :)
Worried about my lack of reading, I think i shall take the train a bit earlier to my course - in the aid of getting me reading.... too much time sending emails and organising and not enough getting down to it! I think I may need to take many a train journey in the next few months - not only to research psychgeography - but also to have a good place to read!
