Finished Product

My day with the Alzheimer residents went great! They were very interactive, and seemed to have a fantastic time! First I started off with some coloring pictures that the residents colored with crayons. They were basic flowers, animals, and houses that encouraged a happy attitude. Next I had Adam Vermillion play the fiddle. He knew many songs that the residents requested him to play. They enjoyed listening to him, clapping to the beat, and singing along. Music also encourages a good feeling and calms angered patients. After the concert was over, I served the residents sandwichs and milk, which my mentor directed me to. My day of activities that i planned for the patients was a total success!

Almost there

I have currently completed my hours of work with my mentor. Tomorrow I am going to complete my product at the Life Center. I am going to host an evening of events for the Alzheimer residents to participate in. I am planning on having live music to entertain the crowd. Hopefully I am going to have a great turn out!

Overview

I have already completed my research paper of my Graduation Project. I found alot of good information for my topic. Now that the paper is complete, I have started to work with my mentor on reaching my 15 hours of fieldwork. I am excited to be working with such a great group of people at the Coltrane Life Center.
