Today, thanks to a friendship formed years ago via the Rosedale Ride, Sara Merritt and four other faculty and a student from the Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired came to visit Vivian's class. The results were amazing. In the video below Kathy from the TSBVI has randomly paired each student in the class with another student by giving them both a noise making instrument of a unique pair after putting blinders over their eyes. By making sounds and listening the students have to find their pair.
They also did a smell test, colored in pictures printed on swell paper, tried to read, feel and write in Braille, wore vision occluders while attempting various tasks, and learned how to walk with canes - mostly with their eyes closed.
