Ms. Milton, a beginning third-grade teacher, receives the following
note from her principal three days before school starts.

00:00:09,270 --> 00:00:17,120
Ms. Milton, Two students have transferred to our school from out
of state. Evan and Emily Rothman are twins and have been placed in your

00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:26,200
classroom. Evan is blind, and Emily has low vision. Mrs. Edwards,
the TVI, should be here before classes start to meet with you. She

00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:35,110
also has the number for the O&M specialist. Someone will come by to
deliver the equipment tomorrow; a list of equipment is attached.

00:00:35,110 --> 00:00:42,280
Copies of the students' IEPs are also attached. A paraprofessional
will be assigned to work with them, but we are still figuring out

00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:52,020
who that person will be. As soon as we decide, we will let you know.
Sorry about the late notice. If you have any questions, let me know.

00:00:52,020 --> 00:00:55,120
Mr. Harvey, Principal

00:00:55,120 --> 00:01:02,010
Ms. Milton isn't sure where to start. She has no experience working
with students who have visual impairments.

00:01:02,010 --> 00:01:11,060
She doesn't even know what an O&M specialist is. Her classroom is
already set up, her lessons prepared for the first two weeks and she

00:01:11,060 --> 00:01:17,090
isn't sure what changes she'll have to make so these students can
participate.

00:01:17,090 --> 00:01:18,280
Here is your challenge.
