One by one fourth graders at Pine Knob Elementary rolled and tried to manuever wheelchairs down the ramp in the cafeteria on Friday.
They also blind-folded themselves and tried walking down a hallway with a white cane.
It was part of Disability Awareness day as they learned what it was like to have a reading or physical disability. Part of the learning included a first hand experience and an opportunity to step into someone else’s life.
Fourth graders throughout the district experience the opportunity every year during November.
