I'm already tired of blogging - I feel like these blogs should count for the rest of my blogs for the rest of the year. haha. Anyway... observations at Avalon today:
12 pm lesson: Alyssa, an adult stroke victim.
Sarah and I worked with Alyssa, not much to comment on here as she's an adult, and just worked on riding skills today. She had a great lesson though.
1 pm lesson: Jessica, a 21 year old cp patient
Jessica arrived late, so she only rode for about 20 minutes. With her, we worked on just loosening up her muslces, since she hadn't ridden in a while. Again, no real educational studies here - just walking laps and socializing.
2pm lesson: Elizabeth, an 8 year old cp girl
Elizabeth was a fun lesson. She is an occupational therapy patient, primarily there to strengthen her legs (she's finally just being able to walk!) Elizabeth began by doing her stretches, and working on some steering, stopping and starting. We asked her to stop at various letters and give a word that started at each letter. Elizabeth isn't learning disabled, so this was a very basic task for her, but it was more practice at direction following than anything. She did very well.
