SPED 310
This week was very interesting in class. I think that the legal aspect of this class can be very complicated. I never realized that there were so many situations that can change how you view a case. I loved being able to have the colored slips of paper with the cases on them. We were able to lay them out on the floor and it really helped me to have a visual aid.
I loved the presentation today about "Hard of Hearing", The group did a wonderful group in how they talked about the topic. I think that people who are hard of hearing, they need to have exposure to deaf culture and hearing culture. I have had so much experience with the deaf culture that I realized how different it is. In high school, I took a Sign Language class for 4 years. I thoroughly enjoyed being able to take this class. It stood out compared to other classes because my teacher was deaf. I realized that sign language is like dancing with your hands. There is a fluency and rhythm. I grew up dancing my whole life and so once I started learning Sign Language very quickly. My teacher noticed how well i was doing compared to the class and she took me under her wing and helped me to grow to my potential. By my last year, I started interpreting for her and helped aid students in class. There is a special place in my heart for the deaf community and sign language!
