3. Give at least 3 Rules of Courtesy to the Blind?
-The following are some of the rules of courtesy to the blind:
•TALK - I’m an ordinary person, who happens to be blind. You can talk to me as you would anyone else—no need to raise your voice. If you have a question, please address me directly rather than asking my companion. • SEE – It’s ok to still use words such as see and look. I will talk with you like everyone else, although I may not be able to make direct eye contact. • YIELD- In all 50 states, the law requires drivers to yield the right of way when they see my extended white cane or guide dog. Only the blind may legally carry white canes. Normally I can hear the sound of traffic and will behave like any other pedestrian. If you drive a hybrid or electric vehicle, I may not hear your car approach, so exercise caution and use the horn if needed. You see more blind persons today walking alone, not because there are more of us, but because we have learned to make our own way.
4. What to do when you assist a Physical Impairment Person?
-If I am going to assist a Physically impaired person I will ask him/her
first before I will render my help because sometimes physically impaired person can also be independent in their own ways. I will ask him/her how can I help her/him or what kind of help she /he needs. While helping I will also let him feel that we are both equal individuals. I won’t show superiority to him/her. I will show him/her equality. I will do my best to let her/him feel comfortable in my assistance. Sometimes person with disabilities are grumpy so I will give him/her patience and understanding.
5. Differentiate Legally Blind from Total blindness.

Certain conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration can cause one to be legally blind. Total blindness on the other hand is defined as the complete lack of light perception, documented as no light perception which means that total blindness cannot see anything. It is often cause by genetic condition, disease or injury. 6. Identify what are the Basic Communication Principles when Communicating with Person who are Deaf. -The basic Communication Principles when Communicating with deaf person are the following: • Speak clearly. -People who are deaf or have hearing loss can read lips. If you speak clearly and project your voice (do not yell), they may need no other help. • Always make eye contact with the person, not his sign language interpreter. -It is very important that you have the conversation with the person involved, not the sign language interpreter. By talking with the interpreter, you are excluding the other person. Always talk with him/her as you would with anyone else, the sign language interpreter will take it from there. • Write it down. - If the communication is not working, you may write down your messages to the person. However, it would be best to ask, in written format, what he/she prefers before you have an entire conversation on paper, especially because there may be simpler options.
