Braille is something we at Vickie Anderson & Associates feel very passionately about and want to show the world how much fun and amazing it can be.
Below is the alphabet in Braille. See how the combination of dots (on the top line) make a different letter (shown below each combination of dots)? Take your time and check out how cool the alphabet looks in Braille.
Using the Braille alphabet above, figure out what is written in the below phrases. Feel free to put your answers in the Comment Section to find out if you’re correct!
To make this exercise easier for yourself, feel free to print out the Braille Alphabet. Also, grab a pen and paper to write your answers down. It’s SO hard to remember what the phrase says after a few minutes.
And as always, HAVE FUN!!
