Cascade Christian Childbirth
Curriculum

 NOTE FROM KELLY:  This is a basic teaching curriculum that is going to be tested during the year 2003.  I invite you to add your input, ideas, and additions to the curriculum as we go along.  It has been created by a collective effort of birth professionals, and it is my desire to see many neat things added by all of you to truly make this a dynamic curriculum.  Although we may not be able to accept all submissions, we will carefully and prayerfully evaluate each submission to be added.  For example, it would be wonderful to start a collection of birth stories on the site for you to use in your class.  Also, if there is an activity that you have used sucessfully in the past and would like to share, please do so.  Anything that belongs to another organization and is copyrighted will not be able to be used.  

You are free to use this curriculum, and may delete anything that you do not like. (If you do this, please contact me and explain why so that we can try to make it better)  However, if you add anything to the curriculum, we ask that you either not advertise your class as a Cascade class, or you make it clear to the participants that you are adding this information.  This will protect the organization from ideas that are being taught that are not the beliefs or opinions of Cascade.
