When Morah Hemda informed her 4th grade Hebrew class that as part of their Tal Am unit on Ha-Kitah Ha-Me'uchedet (the cohesive class) their virtual classroom would include a character in a wheelchair and they'd learn just how much a wheelchair-bound person could do, one 4th grader got particularly excited. She quickly let Morah Hemda know that her mother is wheelchair-bound and how little that stops her from doing.
Sensing a teachable moment, Morah Hemda asked the fourth grader if she'd be willing to prepare a powerpoint presentation for the class - in Hebrew, of course - on what life is like for her mother. She excitedly obliged.
Below is a video of her presentation. The only thing more remarkable than the display of her Hebrew skills, is the display of her courage.
