Disability Awareness

Click on this site, Disabled World.com and you'll see a list of disabilities and people who have those disabilities. I want you to browse through some of the different disabilities you have heard of, and see if you know anyone that had that disability. Then answer these questions in your comment:

1-Who did you choose, what is their disability?
2-Did you know this person had this disability?
3- If you were not able to tell this person had the disability, what does that teach you?
