This is an ongoing instructional and playing session for students that have participated in the Intro to Ukulele session offered by Nina Andersen. Each session will build on the skills learned in the Intro class and we'll build a solid repertoire of songs to play together.

This class meets on the following Tuesdays: 9/30, 10/14, 10/28, 11/12 (Wednesday), 11/25, 12/9. However, the first classs (9/30) will meet at the library, as already arranged with Nina. All other class dates will meet at the Adult Ed Center in Topsham.

In this course, you will learn all of the essential information needed to be able to understand the components of an astrological chart. Learn the basic philosophy behind astrology, what astrology is, (and is not) and how it can be used. A personal astrological birth chart is included.

*THIS IS AN EXTENSION CLASS FOR THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY TAKEN LSW WITH CRAIG. HOWEVER, NEW STUDENTS ARE WELCOME TO JOIN.

This course provides more focus and motivation to write the life stories you started in a previous class or to start a new story. The course will help participants organize and write their life stories using the Guided Autobiography (GAB) method. Each week, students are required to write at least two pages based on a theme-of-the-week, and share their work with a dedicated group. Students will participate in discussions relating to the theme topics. Associated writing exercises will enhance memory recall and storytelling skills.

Joanna, a recent Life Story Writing participant, shared this comment regarding the sharing nature of the course: I found it very touching -a human connect- to hear the childhood memories of my classmates. It made them become “very real people” to me. Abstractly, we know “everyone has a story”, but this class made it tangible, real.

*Class will meet four times on these dates: 11/13 & 11/20; 12/4 & 12/11.

**This is an online class.

Testimonial From Gail R: “This was just the help I needed to create my first blog! Craig combined live demonstrations with time for us to practice the concepts and ask questions. His detailed agendas and homework assignments kept me on track so I was able to create and publish my blog by the end of the class.
