Depending on the age of your students, you could teach some origami projects.

If that sounds like something you would be interested in, please e-mail me off list & I can send you some resources.

My e-mail address is cmfulghum at gmail.com

Nice ideas Terry!

I thought of another idea after reading yours.

Kaila, you take a paint chip card (the kind you get free from the paint department) and use a design paper punch. You can create a book mark to use or give as a gift. A cute one is to use a paint chip of greens and use a Christmas Tree punch. Yellow paint chip with a butterfly etc. Add a tassel to the top!

How about a pony bead class or a simple bracelet. What is the age bracket of the students?
Any chance they have enough braillers for all students?
Yoou could teach them to make a braille picture!

Good morning friends, I have been asked to teach a craft class at my local blind center. I am extremely nervous about this and have not yet excepted the position. It’s voluntary and I already teach a Crochet/knitting loom class at the same school. They have a ton of different materials available for the craft class but before excepting I wanted to have some ideas of different things I would be able to do with the students. Each class is one hour and 15 minutes long and I will have as many as 10+ students at a time. I’m trying to come up with ideas that are not yarn related to do with the students. Does anyone have any ideas? I can’t come up with anything off the top of my head to make. I think I want to except the position because there are no other individuals volunteering to teach it, without an instructor The class will be canceled and I don’t feel like that is fair to the individuals taking the class. I honestly just wanted to be a student in the class. LOL please help me!

Thank you,

Kaila
