Students recognize that everyone is different. In this physical differences instructional activity, students participate in three activities highlighting differences among people. In activity one, students discover differently "abled" dolls and equipment. In activity two, students experience sign language as a form of communication. And in activity three, students equip differently "abled" dolls with wheelchairs and leg braces to dispel stereotypes about people with disabilities.
