Visual Spatial Learners
3 Day Intensive Workshops
Starjump
Special Needs Education
The 3 Day Intensive Managing 3D Me
program is aptly named. During the three days
the participants learn to recognize their
strengths, improve their organization and
study skills, learn keyboarding and spelling
strategies for Visual Spatial Learners, role
play dealing with specific situations and
managing emotions and intensities.
They find expression through clay modeling,
sketching, photography, role playing and
puppetry. They enjoy challenges of strategy
games, zome construction and puzzles.
They have the opportunity to stay in contact
with each other and with Starjump via an MC2
Forum and email.
The program is evaluated each day and
modified if necessary to tailor the course to
the specific needs of the participants.
