Grandparents are special
people with wisdom and pride.
They are always offering
love and kindness and are
always there to guide.
They often make you feel
so confident and strong.
Their arms are always open
no matter what you did wrong.
They try to help out in every
way that they can.
They love all their grandchildren the
same whether you're
a child, woman or man.
They are always there to listen
and to lend a helping hand.
They show you respect and
they try to understand.
They give their love, devotion and so
much more, that's easy to see.
Grandparents,
what perfect examples of the kind of
person that we should be.

Special Needs Resources:
It is common for children to achieve their developmental milestones at their own
pace. They can be ahead in some areas of functioning and at the same time they
may need further development in some of their other areas.
Each child is unique and special in their abilities. They all need to be accepted
and understood for who they are and deserve the opportunity to receive all the
attention and support to become the best they can be.
At times, parents may observe that their child is not progressing or learning as
quickly as other children. At that moment, parents may experience multiple
emotions in dealing with themselves and dealing with their child. This is the time
when they still need to be the best advocate for their children and learn how to
help them.
There are many resources available to infants, toddlers and preschoolers with
different abilities.
When there is a concern about a child’s developmental progress, parents can
arrange a free comprehensive screening that involves assessment of the following
areas: physical, cognitive, communication, adaptive ability, social, emotional and
self-help abilities. The screening will also identify necessary early intervention
services.
Under IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) evaluations are provided
at no cost to parents. They are funded by State and Federal monies.
Parents can contact local resources such as FDLRS-services ages birth through 21(305-274-3501), Parent to Parent of Miami (305-271-9797), CCDH (305-596-1160)
and Part-C Early Steps Program (305-243-5600).
Early Intervention is an effective way to help children catch up or address
specific developmental concerns as soon as possible. It enables a child with
special needs to become self-sufficient, prevent a disability from becoming more
severe, build on the child’s strengths and preserve the child‘s pride and selfesteem.

Happy Thanksgiving
Got
?
We all shop for groceries, sometimes
two or three times a week-or more! Now
turn those shopping trips into easy
cash for your school, and encourage
friends to do the same! Just look for the
Box Tops logo on hundreds of products
like Cheerios, Kleenex and so much
more in almost every aisle of the store.
All you need to do is clip and send them
to school with your child- each one is
worth 10 cents for your school!

The Tauber Academy Parent Teacher Network
has launched a Facebook Page to strengthen the
connection between home and school. We will be
posting information about upcoming events,
fundraisers and enrichment programs. We
encourage you to use the group's "wall" to make
play dates, add suggestions or comments.
Looking forward to a fun year filled with new
friends and good times.
.
Our popular Friday Night Live
service is held each
Friday night at 6:30 p.m.
This lively musical service, led by
Rabbi Jonathan Berkun on guitar
and Cantor David Muchnick on
keyboards is the perfect way to
begin Shabbat.
It is usually followed by a
Family Style Shabbat Dinner.
Soon you will be receiving an "invitation" to join
the group if you are interested. If you choose not
to join, you can always refer to the Tauber Times
for details about what the PTN is doing.
Thank you.
