[blparent] Nemmeth code

[Misty Dawn Bradley]

Hi,
Yes, I am enrolled in the Nemeth Code course at Hadley, and even though I 
had some knowledge of Nemeth Code, I am actually learning a lot that I did 
not know, and it is also helping me to understand mathematics concepts that 
I struggled with when I was in school because they weren't shown to me 
properly using Braille, so this course is actually helping me to understand 
them better along with learning more about the principles of Nemeth Code.

Nemmeth code:
You know this way of math has been around for years and years and  in my
life it just didn't apply, well now that I am working full time in a Braille
class with kiddos K through 2nd grade I have a new opinion on what we
parents should really push for our children who have trouble seeing or
cannot see at all.
It is fascinating and so much fun.
Nemmeth is more than just dropping numbers but it also encompasses the time
and tally marks.
I have learned how to write equations and how to line problems up.

And watching these kiddos do it, well just makes me want to learn more and
more.
