[Pibe-division] Braille for beginners...

[Pauline Smith]

Good morning. I also teach Brielle 2 adults and Young adults in a local program in Southeast Michigan. I will add just a couple of things to Anita's helpful hints. Since she mentioned getting a slate and stylist it will be helpful to add that when you use a slate because of the way it is constructed and the fact that you were punching the dots through the paper you must start from the right side which means that 1 would be in the upper right hand corner of the cell when you write that 2 in the middle right that 3 bottom right and so forth. When you read Brielle written on a slate it will be in the proper order starting with that one on the left. That is enough for now as that covers enough confusion. Write if you need more tips.
