[blindkid] First-grade art

[Bernadette Jacobs]

Thanks Debbie and Brandi for your great ideas.  Another thing that I 
might suggest, once a month or so, bring in one of these things. 
Everyone enjoys things being brought in.  We all like presents. That 
way, you're not asking someone to "accommodate."  Rather, you are 
providing your own solution to a minor dilemma that might help your 
child and be fun for all the others in the process.
