It sometimes feels like these students are totally secluded from the other children. I think it is beneficial to have life skills students interact with others.Brandi W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06302319602732307129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4177635884064568535.post-72382944835432909742009-12-13T01:09:32.530-08:002009-12-13T01:09:32.530-08:00Martha,

His being blind is hardly the focus of the book, but I do agree that it could be used to teach the lesson of everyone having their different skills and talents, but in contrast, The Giver's society doesn't keep people around who are considered weak. Don't think I would use it to teach a whole class about disabilities, but it is a really thought-provoking read for many other reasons. <br /><br />Anywho, I really just dropped in here to see your thoughts on your final blog post and to wish you good luck on your presentation AND THEN... Have a wonderful and restful holiday. Hey, let me know what classes you're in. Hope to see you spring semester! ~StephSteph H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01914401405828437224noreply@blogger.com
