[blparent] Breann's class

[Jennifer Stewart Jackson]

My mother was prescribed glasses for the first time when she was around eleven. Before getting glasses she had no idea that other people could see the individual leaves on the trees when looking out a window, or that the wall paper in her family dining room had a pattern. All of that seemed very normal to her.

The kids may have no clue that their eyes are the problem. What they perceive is normal to them.

That's too bad tha the kids haven't interacted with the blind children. 

One thing that the principal brought up was the fact that there are students that look like they are having problems with their eye sight. I told the classes that if they have eye issues they need to tell the principal. I also said that I would be willing to talk to any of the parents about issues that could determine whether their child is blins or not.

I got to speak to 3 classes a couple of weeks ago.  The difference between these kiddos and the kiddos I have talked to in the past, is these go to a school where there aare a dozen blind kids walking around.  The thing that was the same, these kids don't know any of them, so they still had tons of interesting questions.
