Wheel Chair Lecture Class

Today, I take part in a wheelchairs lecture class. It is one of my club’s activities which hold every year. The class starts at nine o’clock so I have to get up early. The day, I got up at eight fifteen. I had to go out my house at eight thirty so I really hurried as much as I could. I was quick so I could be in time. The day’s program has various events.

First, we will practice how to use wheelchairs. Second, we will watch the video which explain how to use it. Third, we will have lunch. Fourth, we will go to the gymnasium and played some wheelchair games. First, I met members which I act together today. They are high school students. They were so young for me. However, they are kind and enjoyed together. We practiced to use some wheelchairs. I thought it was difficult that I used it on rugged way. However, we practiced and we could do that.

Second, we watch a video which explain how to use wheelchair. The video was so interesting and we found how to use them. After that, we had lunch. I was very hungry so I really happy! It was Karaage lunch, it’s delicious. However I was full so I couldn’t eat all of the lunch. I carried it back:)

Third, we moved to the gymnasium. We played some wheelchair games. For example, sitting volley ball, Origami with putting work gloves and went up the stairs with weight foot. They are experiences of handicapped person. We did various experiences, we could enjoy.

Finally, we gathered a classroom and held a closing ceremony. We were thankful to people which planed this lecture class. We could use wheelchair and understand handicapped person’s feeling. I thought it was a good experience for me.
