An experience I've had with an exceptionality is that there was a girl in my class who had dyslexia. She needed help when we did tests. The test had to be read out to her in another room because she would get words mixed up when she read the test herself. At first I dint get it and I asked her why she couldnt read it normal. She just shrugged and said she was born this way. I asked her what did she see when she read something in a book. She said just a bunch of jumbled words here and there. That was my first experience with an exceptionality.
In high school people with disabilities (learning and physical) was apparent. I think it was because we had a separate section of the school for the people with severe learning disabilities. Also the people in wheelchairs were in that part too. The only places that they werent sepaprated was in connections and the lunchroom. In high school I became more accepting of people differences.

I Am Poem
I am nice and determined
I wonder why things are so hard sometimes
I hear ants crawling
I see the rainbows in rain puddles
I want to read minds
I am nice and determined
I pretend to not care at times
I feel the music moving through me
I touch the air around me
I worry about how things are going to turn out in my life
I cry when I think about if my loved ones died
I am nice and detemined
I understand that not everything will always go my way
I say God will hear my prayers
I dream of being rich
I try to be nice most of the time
I hope that all of this wasn't for nothing
I am nice and determined
