Helen Keller


This week the class learned a little bit about the life of Helen Keller. Helen was both blind and deaf so with the help of her teacher she learned a unique way of communicating. By tracing the letters of words on her hand Helen was able to understand what her teacher was saying to her and in turn she was able to communicate with others. The boys had fun communicating with each other in this way!
