Es una vez más tiempo de comenzar a planificar para nuestro programa Buddy del 2014. 
Este programa de verano de tres semanas, de diversión y aprendizaje es para niños de 9 a 13 años.
Las fechas para el 2014 son del 12 de Julio hasta el 2 de agosto del 2014.Imagen de compras.
El Programa Buddy ofrece una oportunidad para que los niños ciegos hagan amigos y se diviertan en un ambiente positivo y seguro, así como para queAprendan y practiquen técnicas alternas de la ceguera, a medida que crean fé en sí  mismos.
El entrenamiento en técnicas alternas incluye la instrucción en lectura y escritura Braille, el desplazamiento básico con el bastón, las habilidades en la cocina, y la introducción de habilidades de vida independiente. Los estudiantes pueden aprender a vertir líquidos, llevar una bandeja de comida, lavar la ropa, preparar una receta, y mucho más, a medida que crean la auto-confianza y habilidades para resolver problemas.Imagen de 3 estudiantes del programa Buddy en la clase de La administración del hogar

Los estudiantes también participan en "tiempo de conversación" donde se discuten temas importantes sobre la ceguera con sus compañeros ciegos y con los instructores. Este tiempo brinda a los estudiantes la oportunidad de discutir sus sentimientos sobre la ceguera, sus frustraciones con situaciones incómodas, y les ayuda a desarrollar una actitud positiva sobre la ceguera y sus abilidades.Imagen de una escalada de rocas.

Además, los estudiantes participan en muchas actividades interesantes en el área de Twin Cities, tales como visitas a parques naturales, Wild Mountain Water Park, y escaladas de rocas.  Estas actividades permiten a los estudiantes desarrollar sus habilidades de socialización.  Las actividades están bien supervisadas y la tutoría para los niños es proporcionada por modelosactivos a seguir ciegos. amistades de por vida comienzan en esta breve experiencia de verano.Durante todas estas actividades fuera del salón de clase, durante el Programa Buddy, uno de nuestros objetivos es enseñar a nuestros estudiantes las técnicas alternas de la ceguera para ganar la confianza en sí mismos que les permitiría regresar a sus hogares y participar activamente en aún más actividades de diversión con sus amigos videntes.Imagen del uso de una parrilla al aire libre.
Las actividades son una excelente oportunidad para enseñar y reforzar una amplia variedad de técnicas alternas, ya que se aplican a la vida real, y esta experiencia de aprendizaje suele ser más eficaz, cuándo hay un montón de diversión en cuestión. Imagen de una chica del Programa Buddy.

The following comes from Charlene Guggisberg, Coordinator of Youth and Special Programs at BLIND, Inc.:

Warm Greetings from BLIND, Incorporated

It is once again time to start planning for our 2014 Buddy program.  
This three-week summer fun and learning program is for children ages 9 to 13.  
The dates are July 12 through August 2, 2014. 

The Buddy Program offers an opportunity for blind children to make friends and have fun in a positive and secure setting as well as to learn and practice alternative techniques of blindness while building self-confidence. 

The training in alternative techniques includes instruction in reading and writing Braille, basic cane travel, cooking skills, and introductions to independent living skills.  Students may learn to pour liquids, carry a food tray, do laundry, follow a recipe, and much more while building self- confidence and problem solving skills. 

Students also participate in "talk time," where they discuss important issues about blindness with blind peers and instructors.  This time gives the students a chance to discuss their feelings about blindness, their frustrations with uncomfortable situations, and helps them develop a positive attitude about blindness and their abilities. 

In addition, students participate in many exciting activities in the Twin Cities area, such as visits to nature parks, Wild Mountain Water Park, and rock climbing.  These activities allow students to develop their socialization skills.  Activities are well supervised and mentoring for the children is provided by active blind role models.  Lifelong friendships begin during this brief summer experience.

During these entire out-of-the- classroom activities during the Buddy Program, one of our goals is to teach our students the alternative techniques of blindness and gain the self-confidence that would allow them to return home and actively participate in even more fun activities with their sighted friends.  

Activities are excellent opportunities to teach and reinforce a wide variety of alternative techniques, as they apply to real life, and this learning experience is usually most effective when there is a lot of fun involved.

 If you have questions please call 612-872-0100 (ext. 251), toll-free 
800-597-9558, or email cguggisberg at blindinc.org .  You may complete an  application by visiting our website at www.blindinc.org

                                    Sincerely,

                                    Charlene Guggisberg 
                                    Coordinator for Youth and Special programs
