Alecsandria Colchico
Imagination Expert from KCET’s "A Place of Our Own" and Long Beach City College Children's Center Manager
Does imagination play a key role in learning and success in life? In a word, YES! Imagination allows children to invent new ways of thinking about all kinds of things. With simple props and objects, children dream up new ways to use them, and this frees them from the restrictions of the real world. Children can invent a new world—with words, symbols and images that exist in their minds.

Tuning Your Telling (Session 1 only) Antonio Sacre—Bilingual Storyteller, Author, Performer
Songs, Games and Rhymes for the Multicultural Classroom (Sessions 2 & 3 only) José-Luis Orozco—Bilingual Educator, Children’s Author and Recording Artist
