This was a very busy week. This Friday was Mother’s Day, and there were lots of activities at school this week.

5/7 Tues.

Johnson, our new music teacher, taught us “Mother”, a beautiful song about our love for mothers. And Miss Alice told us the story of Mother’s Day. The idea of a day for mothers was first given by Miss Anna of Philadelphia(费城). As a result of her hard work, the celebration of the first American Mother’s Day was held in Philadelphia on May 10, 1908. Soon the holiday became popular all over the country and around the world.

5/8 Wed.

We practiced “Mother” today. We prepared some songs and games to show our love to our mothers. This was going to be a special present for our parents on Friday.

5/9 Thurs.

It took us two hours to decorate(装饰)our classroom for PAT DAY. I was tired. Mom was also nervous. It would be the first time for her to meet our teachers. She had always been nervous about talking to teachers since she was a child. That’s funny!

We know that disabled people are seldom shown in advertisement on television. If they really are, it is usually to make people feel sad for them. It is important to find out what would be the most helpful to the other person, instead of supposing that you know. This may take time. Some people become impatient. Others may be too selfish to make the effort. Remember that disabled people may do things in a different way from you. All it needs is a little thought. Whether disabled or not, we can all learn from each other. Disabled people necessarily make themselves brave. They probably feel that they have to adapt to(适应)their situation(处境). They have learnt not to give up, but to keep on trying. Life isn’t always fair. Sometimes we have to deal with difficult situations. Having to face a challenge can often help us to have a better understanding of ourselves and of other people.

It is not helped to treat disabled people as if they all have the same feelings and needs. And it’s important for us to know what kind of help the disabled person would welcome.

Some people often think disabled people are poor and have mercy(怜悯)on them. In face this can be offensive because it may be unkind and hurt.
