This is the fist lesson I have come across that covers this content in such an explicit and direct way. I needed this because some of our volunteers had physical disabilities and my students didn’t respond the way I thought they would. I used this lesson and we discussed the “right” way to respond. Thank you so much. I didn’t know what to say and your lesson was so helpful.
