Teaching Students with Visual Impairments About the Role of Police
Submitted by Liz Eagan on Sep 17, 2015
Last week my 3rd grade student mentioned something she had overheard on the news to the effect that police are bad. We discussed how they are being perceived as bad and that people are being mean to them. Then my 1st grade student mentioned that they (police) were being hurt. My 3rd grade student then suggested we tell them "thank you". Hence the project.
Both students brailled their letters and my first grade student determined what textures to use in making the police badge. My 3rd grade student used the PIAF (a tactile image maker) to create a part of the image.
