Melody in Johnson Creek, Wisconsin

Mrs. DiPietro's 4th Grade
Johnson Creek Elementary
United States
Johnson Creek, Wisconsin
(Melody #036B0114)
Melody had the chance to "go home" with all of our students for the night. She experienced many things with my students including trips to the grocery store, archery class, reading together, pets, and other things that were fun!
We learned that environmental accommodations would need to be made in all of our homes in order for Melody to be comfortable there. We all agreed that there would be no need to treat her differently as a friend or family member. Melody's visit opened our eyes to the many things we take for granted everyday.

  1. Dear class,
    That is a very wise post that you made and I am thankful to here that Melody helping you realize that a person with a disability is not as different as you thought. I love that you brought Melody to Archery because i'm sure she loved it.
