How To Read and Write Braille Alphabet Letters & Numbers - Grade 1: Step By Step PRINTED Braille Language Workbook For Beginners-Not Including Contracted Braille Signs

This is a great book to help you learn the dot placements

First I have to say as a teacher for visually impaired children with several braille reading friends, that anyone expecting to learn braille as a sighted person will learn to read it with their eyes. Most sighted teachers who teach braille READ IT WITH THEIR EYES. You are not taught to read tactilely unless you need it. The teaching and learning process is different for people who are blind than for people who are sighted. Learning by touch would be a different and more expensive book. I have been reading braille by sight for nearly 40 years because I learned as a sighted person. You would need an expert like myself to expose you to tactile exercises. You would also need the tools and equipment to produce braille. This book is good for exposure and for the basics. I have a first grade student with some vision who needs to see the configurations of the dots he he making on the braille writer. Then he can understand what he is producing. This book has nice large sized ink braille for him to copy which will save me time in creating lessons for him. It is also great for folks at home who cannot find lessons to keep up with a student who needs braille. They should learn to read by sight as well. For the reason mentioned as well as the prices, this book is great. I have another student with los and decreasing vision who has learned all these with in braille plus the contracted signs. I work totally tactile with her after a few years of mixing in braille and tactile braille. Last school term she more than doubled her tactile reading speed and will still try to read visually. But bottom line: Sighted people read braille with our eyes and this book is great for teaching braille fundamental for the sighted.

Very easy to use , very informative and great fun. If you've ever fancied learning Braille, I really recommend this book.

Trop de pages uniquement consacrées à recopier les lettres. Je pensais y trouver plus de « jeux » pour apprendre de manière ludique. Très déçue
