I took a classical song, written by Franz Haydn(1732-1809) and turned it into a wonderful game about sound and silence! Children will tip-toe,wiggle, jump and gallop to the beautiful music and then FREEZE! on the silences. Great way to teach them about rests.

Faith: The Butterfly

Created by

Faith’s past experience with bullying does not define her, but the bullying scars go deeper than she wants to admit. As it was happening, Faith didn’t fully process the situation. She kept her emotions inside until she shattered nearly two years later. This is not healthy. Although her resilience is quite strong, no one could handle an issue like hers for much longer than she did. Faith didn't have the right skills to deal with bullying – especially from a former friend. I’m guessing she was in
