Workshop Review- The Ripple Project

Pearlz worked with my class over several weeks.
The children's workshops involved creating poetry using a variety of media. She quickly developed a rapport with the children and was able to adapt her approaches and outcomes to their ability levels.

The children enjoyed their activities enormously, were always actively involved and were extremely proud of their completed works including written and visual products. I was particularly surprised and pleased with the scope, originality and quality of the ideas and concepts developed by such young children.

As these was not one of my areas of expertise, I was excited to be able to take Pearlz's work and ideas and continue to work with the class.

The children looked forward to recital day. Their energy and excitement levels were high and they performed well in front of a diverse audience.

I enjoyed and appreciated working with Pearlz. She showed empathy with the children and was professional with the other staff.

I would highly recommend to others they participate in any workshops developed and coordinated by Pearlz
