Discovering Brailleβœ‹πŸ‘†πŸ»

8th Mar 2026

As part of our “A Fresh Start” topic, we have been learning about the importance of our eyes and how we use them every day.πŸ‘€ We discussed what it means to be visually impaired and learned about Louis Braille, who created a system that allows people with visual impairments to read and write through touch.

To explore this further, we created our own names in Braille and challenged our partners to read them using only their sense of touch. It was a fun activity that helped us understand how Braille works and how important our sense of touch can be.βœ‹πŸ‘†πŸ»
