How I Learn

October 5, 2017

We have an amazing team here from New York City shooting our “How I Learn” video! This video will highlight the unique learning strengths of individuals with Down syndrome. This will be for educators, therapists, parents, advocates, babysitters and anyone who wants to understand how our kids learn!

Just yesterday I used a quote from the “How I Learn” video at GiGi’s IEP review. “The pathway from the eyes to the brain is much stronger than the pathway from the ears to the brain.” As we all know our kids are visual learners but when I was able to go beyond just telling them that and explaining why, they really got it! Plus, it actually helped me too! (and I sounded like I knew what I was talking about!)
A BIG thank you to Zack Galler, Panavision, CITY ZEN ZOË and The Sodium Ranch for all their help and hard work.
