It was heart warming to hear their journey through all of the hardship but also the joy that has been brought through it. ]]> 2023-05-24 14:19:50 UTC https://padlet.com/ehartley2002/zdxi4q22xw6l9xa2/wish/2603386764 ehartley2002 https://padlet.com/ehartley2002/zdxi4q22xw6l9xa2/wish/2603391318 You may ask, wouldn't it be intruding to ask a family about their personal matters regarding their child who has disabilities? Well, for some families it can be a very sensitive subject but for other families, they are eager to share their story because it can bring comfort to others and also helps to communicate to others and in a sense taking that weight off their shoulders by sharing with others who are wanting to hear. Their stories impact so many other people, and for me, it brings me comfort and joy to see how through so much hardship and just figuring out what to do through a tragic time, so much good can be brought out of it. I feel as though I have a heart for children and adults with special needs and all I wat is for them to feel loved and wanted.]]> 2023-05-24 14:23:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ehartley2002/zdxi4q22xw6l9xa2/wish/2603391318 ehartley2002 https://padlet.com/ehartley2002/zdxi4q22xw6l9xa2/wish/2603426517 If any of you is interested in helping kids and adults with special needs, I am involved with a program called ESP which stands for Extra Special People, and it is an afterschool program for kids with disabilities and special needs and it is like summer camp for them every day. All the people that volunteer are so joyful with all the kids and bring them so much joy and want the very best for them, and it is so sweet to see how happy the kids are with all the activities that we do! ]]> 2023-05-24 14:50:02 UTC https://padlet.com/ehartley2002/zdxi4q22xw6l9xa2/wish/2603426517 ehartley2002 https://padlet.com/ehartley2002/zdxi4q22xw6l9xa2/wish/2603439308 This project involves speaking and discussion because it allows people to ask questions and I answer some questions that may be asked and try to give insight to help other people understand. Speaking and discussion is the tool I used when I learned more about communication and collaboration tools, and this tool allows people to interact more with their class either in person or online by being creative and creating participation. ]]> 2023-05-24 14:59:27 UTC https://padlet.com/ehartley2002/zdxi4q22xw6l9xa2/wish/2603439308 ehartley2002 https://padlet.com/ehartley2002/zdxi4q22xw6l9xa2/wish/2603447533 If anyone has any thoughts or ideas they want to bring up, please share! Please take a few minutes to discuss with one another about the importance of a program such as ESP, and if you could ever see yourself being involved in anything like it.]]> 2023-05-24 15:06:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ehartley2002/zdxi4q22xw6l9xa2/wish/2603447533
