Our newest old classmate

It was all smiles in the Haifa class today when Olive came into the room. Everyone knew about her cast and her wheel chair and they were ecstatic to see her. We established a few rules before Olive came in. First, only her mother can push her wheel chair. Secondly, try very very hard not to bump into her leg. The children wanted to know if Olive can bend her other leg. She showed them how she can do many things with her other leg. Jared asked Olive how she washed her hands before snack. Olive explained that her Mother had wipes for her to use. Olive will be in the Haifa class for about one hour every day. We are all learning a lot about broken ankles and what it means to be in a wheel chair. Thank you to Olive and Karen for teaching us some very important lessons.
