Braille slate and stylus
| Description: |
Named after Louis Braille, the six dot system of writing called Braille allows people who are blind to use written communication. Using a slate, the author pushes the stylus into the slate to make indentations into paper from right to left. To read it, turn the paper over and read with your hands. Can you think of other ways to communicate? |
