The CSI Toddler lab has 3 openings for children 18 months - 2 years of age. Openings are in the Wednesday/Friday class that runs from 9-11. The cost is $275.00 per semester plus a $75.00 Registration Fee. Spots will be filled on a first come first served basis.
The College of Southern Idaho Early Childhood Education Program Lab School is designed to meet the developmental needs of young children eighteen months through three years of age. It provides experiences that enrich and enhance each child's cognitive, language, social, emotional, physical, and creative development. Within the program's daily schedule, each child has opportunities to create, explore the environment, learn problem-solving techniques, develop personal interaction skills, and learn concepts through firsthand experiences. Children are not expected to perform beyond their abilities or to meet a set of standards based on "speeding up" learning or "hurrying" skill acquisition. Children develop a positive self-concept through a balance of self-and teacher-directed activities. Staff members serve as positive role models and provide care and education that is supportive, nurturing, warm, and responsive to each child's individual needs. We respect families as the primary and most important providers of care and education. We believe parents and teachers are partners in education.

MAGIC VALLEY CHORALE
Dates:
August 23 - December 13
Days:
Thursdays
Time:
7:00 - 9 p.m.
Instructor:
Carson Wong
Fee:
$10
Location:
Fine Arts 133
The Magic Valley Chorale always extends a big welcome to new voices looking for a place to call home. The Chorale is a wonderful opportunity to share your love of music with your community and meet new people who share your interests. Conducted by Carson Wong, the Chorale typically performs two concerts per year at winter holiday time and in the spring. In an effort to keep participation affordable for all, dues and music fees are kept to the lowest possible minimum for each production. Skill levels of musicianship within the group vary greatly; the Chorale provides an opportunity to learn as well as teach for the love of singing.
SACRED GEOMETRY
Dates: September 1
Days: Saturday
Time: 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Instructor: Sandy March
Fee: $39
Location: Shields 107
Sacred geometry has existed in many forms across the ages. The word 'Geo-metry' comes from the Greek words Geos meaning 'Earth' and Metron meaning 'To measure', which together literally translate as the 'Measuring of the earth' or 'Earthly measurements', an art which was traditionally restricted to the priest-hood. Sacred geometry involves sacred universal patterns used in the design of everything in our reality, most often seen in sacred architecture and sacred art. The basic belief is that geometry and mathematical ratios, harmonics and proportion are also found in music, light, cosmology. This value system is seen as widespread even in prehistory, a cultural universal of the human condition. In this class we discuss what sacred geometry is and how it affects your everyday lives, within our home, work place, music, our bodies and much more. We will learn how to transmute the negative effects in our daily surroundings using sacred geometry. Requirements: Pendulum if you have one. Pendulums will be available to borrow or purchase at the class as well.

The CSI Piano Celebration series will present pianist Dr. Roger McVey in concert at
7:30 p.m. on September 7 in the CSI Fine Arts Auditorium
. Tickets are $10/adults, $8/seniors, and $6/students and are available at the CSI Fine Arts Box Office.
This concert program, presented by pianist Roger McVey, will feature Schubert's final work for piano: the beautiful Sonata in B-flat major, D.960, completed just weeks before the composer's death in 1828. The program will also include some dazzling pieces by Franz Liszt, as well as the Sonata No. 3 by Emma Lou Diemer. Ms. Diemer is one of America's most eminent living composers, and this exuberant sonata was partially inspired by a trip to Argentina, incorporating tango rhythms and characteristics.
For more information contact the CSI Fine Arts Center at 732-6288.
