[nabs-l] WAY COOL CLASS, JUST 1 QUICK QUESTION

[Kaiti Shelton]

Hi Lavonya,

I have a little bit of vision out of one eye.  Enough to see basic
shapes and colors and stuff but nothing in great detail unless it's
pretty close to my face.  For learning signs I usually have another
student from the class who has volunteered to help me learn the signs
put my hands in the correct positions or verbally instruct me,
depending on how complex the sign is.

Feel free to write me off-list!
