Slate and Stylus

Today we will check out our slate and stylus. Now, the slate and stylus gives us a small, portable, inexpensive way to write.

Think of the slate and stylus as our braille writing pencil or pen. It is super for taking notes, jotting down a phone number, and even making a quick grocery list. So let's jump right in and get started.

All right, we will begin by laying our slate on a table. Now, the hinges will be on our left, and the side with the open rectangular holes will be face up, or on top.

Okay, we will simply lift the top frame of the slate, kind of like we're opening a book. And we will open it all the way up so that it is laying completely flat on the table.

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. Learning more will give us a better understanding of how to personalize Hadley just for you. And don't worry, everything you share with us online will be kept safe and secure. Of course, if you'd prefer to talk through these questions, we're just a phone call away at 800-323-4238.

Taking these few steps saves your preferences so you can continue right where you left off and track your progress every time you log on. Plus, it connects you to the Hadley community and helps sustain our funding to keep Hadley free of charge. And last but not least, it gives you direct access to experts like me. Now, where were we?
