Helen Keller

Today we talked about the number 7. The kids had to count out 7 toothpicks and make the number 7. As it turns out, a 7 CAN go either way... :)



Today we talked about our ears and hearing. We talked about all the wonderful things we can hear-- music, voices, speaking, etc. We sang the songs softer, louder, faster, etc. with our eyes closed so we could appreciate our ears.
We worked on our senses workbook and practiced our writing. For part of our 5 Senses Workbook, we 'wrote' our names in braille. Here the kids are working in teams to make the holes.


We passed around a bowl that has braille on it so the kids could feel what it felt like.


We also read the book The Black Book of Colors. It is a book for children who are blind. It describes what colors 'feel' like.
