Teaching Residency in School for the Blind

I could not have done this 1-week teaching residency at South Dakota School for the Blind and Visually Impaired without help from many people. Before my departure, a few of my friends in blindfold took my mock lessons. Based on their advice, I was able to make my lesson plans. At the school, staff made time to assist me whenever it was needed. For example, when I asked for someone to hold a bowl for a blind boy with left side paralysis, a math teacher and a science teacher came in. On my last day, 6 people including the principal helped me pack the students' pieces and transport them to an arts center, where a kiln was located. Such readily available assist made my experience with the students so delightful. Thank you very much.
