Within a Ms. Tammy Passmore few weeks, Dennis was completing matching games independently and using the tablet N to learn and trace the letters of the alphabet. Mr. & Mrs. Gene Natale Ms. Cynthia Patalita Mr. Al Nathal Mr. & Mrs. Tom Paterniti The iPad, with its many onscreen movements and reinforcing sounds, is showing great promise in helping children with autism learn all kinds of important concepts. Dr. & Mrs. Joseph Nedresky Ms. Cecelia Payne Mrs. Marie Nedza Ms. Dianne Payne Donations made to the Dr. Gertrude A. Barber Foundation funded the purchase of three iPads for the Elizabeth Lee Black School in 2010. Since then, the electronic tablets Atty.

By the start of the 2012- Mr. & Mrs. John Pellegrino 2013 school year, all 23 classrooms had their own iPads funded by gifts to the Barber Ms. Sallie Newsham Dr. & Mrs. Eric Pennock Foundation. Ms. Linda Nicewonger Ms. Judith Pennsy Like many other teachers, Lindsay began using the iPads as soon as they became Mr. & Mrs. Gerald Nichols Ms. Colleen Pentycofe available. She noticed that a lot of the concepts that her students struggled with could Mr. & Mrs. Carl Nicolia Mr. & Mrs. Dean Pepicello be successfully mastered on the new tablet. Mr. & Mrs. Matthew Niemic Ms. Kathleen Perfetto “Many of our students have a hard time isolating one finger for tasks,” said Lindsay. Mr. Edward Nientimp Mr. & Mrs. Richard Perkins “When they approached the iPad using their whole hand, they quickly realized they Mrs. Jean Nies Mr. & Mrs. Randall Peterman • would wipe out the entire screen. So, they learned to touch the icons with one finger, Ms. Kim Nonte Mr. & Mrs. John Petersen and now understand how to isolate their finger for other things, too.” Mr. & Mrs. Robert Noonan Mr. & Mrs. David Pethick Lindsay and many other teachers use the iPad every day in the classroom for Mr. & Mrs. Dan Norcross Ms. Elizabeth Petsch individual lessons and group activities. She has noticed that students also learn Mr. & Mrs. Robert North Mrs. Pamela Pfadt how to wait patiently for their turn on the new device. “The iPad is such a strong Ms. Johanna North Atty. & Mrs. Mark Phelps reinforcement that students are eager to work for it as a reward, and don’t want to do Mr. Andrew Nuhfer Mr. & Mrs. David Pianta anything that might risk losing their turn.” The Honorable & Mrs. Richard Mr. & Mrs. August Picardo A number of apps have been developed to teach communication and social skills to Nygaard Mr. & Mrs. Stephen Pickard children with autism, while teachers adapt many other apps to fit the student’s goals. Several popular apps enable teachers and students to record and play back words and Mr. & Mrs. James Piekanski O Mr. & Mrs. Henry Pietraszek sounds, helping children learn to imitate and ultimately build language. Mrs. Mary Oas While each student has unique goals, Lindsay has noticed that the iPad is an effective Mr. & Mrs. Mark Pietrusinski • Ms. Theresa Oas Mrs. Gloria Pilewskie tool for nearly everyone. “Students are staying on task longer while having so much Atty. Brian O’Donoghue fun—they don’t even notice that they are learning.” Mr. & Mrs. Larie Pintea Mr. & Mrs. James O’Hare Drs. Jeff & Mary Beth Pinto Mr. & Mrs. Kevin O’Hare Mr. & Mrs. Stephen Pinyot

But then, she’ll start thinking about the In Honor of Barbara Macks Mr. & Mrs. Ray Schreckengost reason that she undertook this 50-state, four-year challenge—her grandson. Mr. & Mrs. J. Douglas Breon “Even now, in every race, I tell myself that the last mile is for Aidan. If he can do In Honor of Sarah Selleny it…if he can work so hard to achieve his goals, then so can I,” said Bev. In Honor of Hillary Davey Mando Anonymous Since January, 2010, Bev’s goal has been to complete a half marathon in all 50 Mr. & Mrs. James Mando states by the time she turns 70 years of age in 2014. Her “Race With Grammy” began in Disney World, Florida, and has since taken her to every part of the country— In Honor of Attorney & Mrs. James including Hawaii. By the start of 2013 she will have competed in 43 states with only In Honor of James Mando R. Steadman seven states and the District of Columbia left to conquer. Ms. Hillary Davey Mando Ms. Teresa Burge But the travelling and the running don’t tell the whole story. Because of her Ms. Susan Chichester grandson’s experience with autism, Bev undertook “Race With Grammy” to increase In Honor of MacKenzie Mazon Ms. Susan Robison awareness about autism, as well as to raise funds to support services for children and adults at the Barber National Institute. Over the past three years, “Race With Ms. Linda O’Malley Grammy” has raised $30,585 to date for the Barber Foundation. In Honor of Kathryn Pohl As she travels across the country, Bev is continuously amazed by the people who In Honor of Karen McElhinny Wisniewski * want to share their stories. “They see me with the autism logo on my running shirt, Ms. Kathleen Teubert Mr. & Mrs. Richard Wisniewski and want to tell me about their grandchild, their niece, their nephew,” said Bev. “I am still surprised by the number of people whose lives are touched by autism.” In Honor of Will Zimmer For Bev’s family, the hope and help that they needed was found at the Barber In Honor of Kaylah McGeary National Institute. Now, Grammy is asking others to join her in supporting Mr. & Mrs. Richard Laniewicz Mr. & Mrs. Robert Zimmer services for children and adults living with the challenges of autism. For every $50 donation, Bev will send her donors a “Race with Grammy” t-shirt. You can make In Honor of Keith Paulson a gift and follow Bev’s progress toward her goal by visiting BarberInstitute.org, or RaceWithGrammy.com. For more information, contact Gary L.
