Learning Observed

On Tuesday I went to Elm School to visit the Science Road Show. There was an activity that showed how people who are blind read. It is called Braille. Braille is a series of dots that show a specific letter. There was a box and inside was a message in Braille. Next to the box there was a the Braille alphabet. I had to try and read the hidden message in the box. I was trying to find out what the words were that was in a box using dots. I found it hard but I kept trying and I managed to figure out that it said “How are you?”. I used have now developed my Capabilities and am Curious about Braille. I am now going to run my iExplore around Braille.
