Kammie is in Ms. Dean's challenge classroom at Stevens Elementary. She is 7 years old and has multiple disabilities.
Her hero is her big sister Kelsey. Kammie's mom is a photographer so she adapted a camera so Kammie could take photographs. The camera is a plastic Lomo Super Sampler. It has no view finder which fits with Kammie's abilities because she wouldn't look through one anyway. A piece of cork was attached to the small shutter button with industrial Velcro. Then we "practiced" taking pictures by modeling hand over hand hitting the cork. Kammie�s mom attached the camera to her walker with a clip and more Velcro.
As you can see Kammie really figured out how to be a photographer! Her mom still had to pull the cord to advance the film as that was something Kammie did not understand with hand over hand modeling.
