Get Rich or Die Trying

Today, my student Arturo brought the 50 cent classic ¨Get Rich or Die Trying¨and a fake gun to class.

Soles for Soles is getting some really positive feedback! If you haven´t heard about this through the grapevine, hear it now! I´m working (through some awesome friends and family) to raise money for my school, Don Jose de San Martin. I´m teaching these kids how to express their needs with signs and symbols, but shoes are a need I can´t fulfill easily. Please consider donating! I can send you a picture of a child you are buying shoes for if you´d like. Help me make this a priority! Checks are being made out to my mom-- if you can donate, let me know and I will send you an email with her name and address! skstello@gmail.com Also, I´ve posted a lot of information (video to come) on facebook, so look for the group or check out my wall!

In other news, the rate of Autism in the US has increased to 1 in every 91 children diagnosed.

Looking forward to hearing from you all!
