Our White Cane Day celebration continues! Kaleb, a 4th grade student, read the book, "My Cane" to students in the RISE K-2 classroom. These #WatertownWay students enjoyed feeling their name in Braille and enjoyed tasting cookies decorated with a white cane! Students in Mrs. Gratz's 5th grade classroom asked great questions about White Cane Day & vision impairments!

White Cane Day learning continued at RMS! Mrs. Grender, WUSD's Vision specialist was our special guest speaker in RMS's Room 401! She talked about "White Cane" Day which represents those individuals who are visually impaired. She read a book, brought fancy cookies with a cane on them, and showed us what a cane looked like! Thank you, Mrs. Grender!
#WatertownWay students in Miss Steuerwald's class learned about Braille and the White Cane law. Students crafted pens to resemble white canes. When they write with their new pens, they will be reminded of the importance of White Canes for people with vision impairments. Students enjoyed cookies with a picture of a white cane on them, while working on their Braille code projects. After reading the book, "White Cane Day", the students generated a list of ideas on how to spread the message about this important holiday!
