Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
Children and adults will find this program humorous - all while learning valuable lessons about people being different. They will also learn that even with a disability (being blind), you can do anything you make your mind up to do.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Attitudes were changed by watching a blind magician perform magic tricks. Comments: 'Having a disability is not always limiting.' 'Being blind did not stop this man!', I learned that having a disability such as blindness is not a barrier if you are truly committed to what you are doing. 'Was a wonderful learning opportunity for people of all ages.'
