Workshop 13: More Dot 5 Words

Hadley presents Contracted Braille Workshop 13 More Dot 5 Words.

To begin, make sure you have your braille workbook with you. If you don't already have one, call Hadley at 847-784-2816 and we'll mail one right out to you. Let's learn some more dot 5 contractions.

Feel the braille in the top-left corner of the page. These dot 5 initial letter contractions stand for the words: lord, know, and young. Above the middle line, you'll find three rows of words. Let's read the first row. This is the word lord.

Ed: Now that you've had a chance to learn a bit with us, we'd like to learn more about you, your name, email address, how you heard about Hadley, and your relationship to vision loss.
