The teachers had never heard her sing.
A young teenage girl at a special needs school rarely said anything but did engage in playing instruments from her wheel chair. After months of working at the school, I decided to bring in one of those plastic microphones that echo when talked or sung into. I gave her the microphone and to all of our astonishment, she sang three nursery rhymes all in a row. The teachers had never heard her sing.
