Empathy Project in a Wheelchair!

Hey guys! I did some Empathy training at school yesterday.  In school, the 5th grade, our classes wanted to know how it would feel to be in a wheelchair!  Yesterday was my turn. For some reason, there was only a break for 1 of the tires, so if you press that brake and try to roll away, you would spin in circles.  Tether ball was a real challenge, and so was Basketball.  I wasn't allowed on the bark chips, so I could only do stuff under the undercover area.  Getting to my desk was really weird, using the bathroom was hard, and there is this little "ramp" in the halls that gave me a hard time.  If I ever break my legs, at least I've had some experience with a wheelchair. :)
