Lincoln STEM wants to show their true appreciation to educator and author Mary Tellefson and their amazing PTO by giving them another shout out! Lincoln STEM 4/5 students participated in a variety of simulations using technology to learn and build empathy for people with blindness. They learned how to properly guide a blind person, use a braille machine, decode the braille alphabet, and how to use their other four senses to learn about the world. A huge thank you to the Lincoln STEM PTO for funding a big autographed book give away! 📖

We were so fortunate to have author Mary Tellefson visit Lincoln STEM last week! She is a teacher and author who works with blind/visually-impaired children. She came to do a presentation and simulation workshop. Students wore blindfolds to see what it what it would be like to have a vision impairment, and also took turns being guides. Thank you, Ms. Tellefson!
