cassandra miller<br />
WELCOME<br />
Cassandra Miller teaches Hip-Hop dance classes as well as Pilates<br />
and Zumba Fitness classes for ISD 728 Community Education.<br />
Describe your background and your experience<br />
Dancing began as a passion for me as a small child. I danced the<br />
Chinese dance in my first Nutcracker ballet when I was 7 years old,<br />
and have been dancing in some form ever since. While the majority of<br />
my dance background and training has been in the areas of ballet, tap<br />
and jazz dance, I have also had a great deal of experience in musical<br />
theatre, and even took some classes in baton twirling. I’ve had the<br />
opportunity to train under some wonderful instructors including Al Reller in Hibbing, MN who gave<br />
me my first opportunities as a musical theatre choreographer while I was still in high school. I<br />
have also studied under Rita Anderson in Ham Lake, Zoe Sealy at the University of MN and other<br />
numerous instructors through the Dance Masters of America organization. I have been teaching<br />
dance now for over 25 years, and I feel incredibly fortunate to be able to share my passion for<br />
dance with others through this community education program.<br />
What can one expect when attending your class?<br />
In the dance classes one can expect opportunities to move from basic to more challenging dance<br />
progressions. As a young dancer you could expect to explore rhythm, style and choreography<br />
while working on a specific dance to perform at the end of the program. Fitness classes also offer<br />
participants opportunity to start at a basic level and progress at their own pace. This ensures that<br />
people of all fitness levels can participate.<br />
What level of experience is needed?<br />
The classes are designed to fit participants at almost any level. So, no experience is needed.<br />
What are the benefits of enrolling children in Community Education dance classes?<br />
One benefit of enrolling children in Community Education dance is an opportunity to explore<br />
dance at a non-competitive level. The shorter length program gives students an opportunity<br />
to try out a dance class with minimal commitment. It’s a wonderful way for children of all ages<br />
to be more active socially. Also, anytime someone enrolls in a dance class they are benefiting<br />
themselves both physically and mentally.<br />
What advice do you have for someone considering a new fitness venture?<br />
Go for it! As a fitness instructor, I can’t tell you what a privilege it is to see someone come to<br />
a class for the first time, and then watch them progress physically over the weeks. I would do<br />
anything to encourage and help you on that journey because the benefits of taking that first step<br />
will last you a lifetime.<br />

achieve victory.<br />

The War to End All Wars: The Great World War I<br />
Battles of the American Expeditionary Force<br />
The Allies held out little hope of victory while an American president<br />
pledged neutrality and commanded an under-equipped, undermanned<br />
and untrained army. But, the Americans arrived and<br />
courageously faced a highly-trained and professional opposing<br />
army. Understand how they turned the tide of the war and assured<br />
victory in the decisive battles of “The Great War.”<br />

<strong>Welcome</strong> New Instructor<br />
Rallou Rice<br />
The Elk River Learning Lab<br />
extends a warm welcome<br />
to Rallou Rice who started<br />
employment as an English as a<br />
Second Language Instructor in<br />
August 2012. She volunteered<br />
with the Elk River Learning Lab<br />
from 2004 until 2008 which<br />
sparked her interest in teaching<br />
and ultimately launched her<br />
journey toward earning a Masters<br />
Degree to teach ESL.<br />
Rallou lives with her family in Rogers. Her three children attend<br />
schools in Rogers. She likes to read write, garden, watch movies<br />
and spend time with family and friends.<br />
She likes helping students improve their ability to speak, write, and<br />
understand English. Rallou was born in Greece and was an English<br />
as a Second Language student too! Her experience gives her the<br />
unique ability to provide empathy and support for ESL students<br />
from the perspective of someone who has gone through the same<br />
experiences of a new immigrant.<br />

ECFE<br />
EARLY CHILDHOOD FAMILY EDUCATION<br />
Come for your CHILD...<br />
STAY FOR YOURSELF!<br />
It’s for you and your young children<br />
- birth to before kindergarten.<br />
ECFE offers high quality learning activities for you<br />
and your children, helps children grow and develop,<br />
enriches family life, and provides information and<br />
support for your important role as a parent!<br />
What happens when we come to ECFE<br />
parent/child activities?<br />
Staff will greet you and the room will be set up with activities.<br />
All ECFE instructing staff have, at minimum, a four year<br />
degree plus teaching licensure in Parent Education, Early<br />
Childhood Education or Early Childhood Family Education.<br />
Usually there are three parts to the sessions: Time together<br />
for parents and children, parent discussion time, and<br />
children’s activity and exploration time.<br />
What are the rooms like?<br />
The ECFE rooms are set up for young children with childsized<br />
furniture, toys and materials that are appealing to kids!<br />
We have one room set up just for infants - 2 years, others for<br />
a variety of ages up to 5 years.<br />
What are the activities?<br />
Activities will be set up in the room. You and your child can<br />
choose what you want to try. Some activities like painting<br />
become weekly favorites. We encourage you to “take your<br />
child’s lead” and enjoy the special time together. At times we<br />
will do group activities with all parents and children. Usually<br />
there’s a time when the ECFE staff have all the parents and<br />
children together in order to get acquainted. There will be<br />
a variety of activities depending on the age of the children.<br />
For older children there will be stories, songs, fingerplays.<br />
In some classes parents will “step back” and watch the<br />
children’s learning in action.<br />
What happens during parent discussion time?<br />
While your child participates in the children’s time in the<br />
ECFE classroom with the Early Childhood Educator, you’ll<br />
meet with parents and the ECFE Parent Educator. Parent<br />
discussion will be in the children’s room for parents with<br />
young children; it will be in another room for parents with<br />
older children. It’s a comfortable situation where you’ll be able<br />
to talk about the joys and concerns of being a parent. You’ll<br />
be able to take time to look at and consider many ideas.<br />
Often parents say this is one of their most important times<br />
during the week. Research tells us that getting information<br />
and support for our role as parents is one of the most<br />
important things we can do for ourselves and our children!<br />
What happens during the children’s time and<br />
how will parents be involved?<br />
The children participate in activities in the classroom while<br />
moms, dads or caregivers participate in the discussion. The<br />
Early Childhood Educator prepares the room and activities<br />
gauged for the children’s ages. Both teacher lead and child<br />
initiated activities are planned. In some classes parents take<br />
turns working with the teacher in the classroom. This provides<br />
an opportunity for parents to observe children’s time and<br />
how their child responds. It also provides an opportunity to<br />
learn more about children’s development and behavior. It’s a<br />
chance to get involved and have fun!<br />

Your child wants to experience everything—to build and knock<br />
down, empty, pull apart, feel, twist, squeeze and move quickly from<br />
one activity to the next! How do you keep up, keep them safe, and<br />
still allow them to explore and learn? Play with your toddler in a<br />
room geared for toddlers. Then, meet with other parents and one of<br />
our friendly and knowledgeable parent educators to talk and learn<br />
together. Topics may include: Development, temperament, setting<br />
limits, communicating with your partner about parenting, observing<br />
and reflecting on development. Discussion will be in the room with<br />

EARLY CHILDHOOD SCREENING<br />
Calling all 3-Year-Olds! It’s time for Screening!<br />
Early Childhood Screening provides an opportunity for children and<br />
their parents to participate in a health and developmental screening<br />
after their third birthday. State law requires screening for all<br />
children entering public school kindergarten, ideally at 3 years old.<br />
Identifying potential health, developmental problems or concerns<br />
early allows time for intervention and remediation during the<br />
critical formative years. Families participating in Early Childhood<br />
Screening may be referred to community health and educational<br />
services including School Readiness and ECFE.<br />
Early Childhood Screening includes:<br />
• Immunization records<br />
• Hearing and vision<br />
• Speech and developmental screening<br />
• Height and weight<br />
• Summary interview with parents<br />

What Happens During Screening?<br />
The parent attends the entire screening process with their<br />
child along with a team of specialists. Your child will have a<br />
developmental progress review by a speech/language clinician.<br />
A review of your child’s vision, hearing, height, weight and<br />
immunization history will be conducted by one of our health<br />
professionals. The parent/s will then participate in a family factors<br />
interview to review the screening process and talk about any<br />
concerns they may have.<br />
Who Needs to be Screened?<br />
All children living in District 728 who are 3, 4, or 5 years old and<br />
not currently enrolled in kindergarten NEED to participate in this<br />
FREE screening program before entering kindergarten, or have an<br />
equivalent screening from a doctor. Age three is the recommended<br />
age for screening. Children who attend Head Start or Early<br />
Childhood Special Education Services programs may not have to<br />
participate in Early Childhood Screening.<br />
Is the Program Required?<br />
Yes. Minnesota state law requires that your child must be screened<br />
for enrollment in a public school. Children are not permitted to enter<br />
public school without having Early Childhood Screening and up-todate<br />
immunizations.)<br />
If you are planning to send your child to private or home school the<br />
screening is not required by law, however, we still encourage you to<br />
participate. This is a wonderful opportunity for you to find out how<br />
your child is developing.<br />
