How Does She Know?

We were having a class discussion about Halloween. My blind student threw out something about pumpkins and everyone stopped dead...

Student A: Wait a minute! How does she even know it's Halloween?!?
Student B: Yeah! How?
Me: She's blind, not dumb.

Guess we will see if she can identify Thanksgiving and Christmas.

What Does the X Say?

Me: (pointing to the letter X) What does this letter say?
Student: I don't know.
Me: Can you try?
Student: Well. My mom doesn't even know what that letter says.

Fair enough... moving on...
