World Braille Day

Today is 4th January, it is the World Braille Day.

Blind people can see through braille, with it they can read, write and continue their education to escape ignorance and darkness.

Each year, We celebrate the occasion through educational lectures in the classroom and inclusive activities.

In the previous year, I conducted an awareness-raising activity on the Braille language through an explanatory method for the Braille letter and its points, where the students formed their names in braille.

Together we break down barriers to forming a conscious inclusive society.

We ask ِAllah to remove the epidemic from us, so that we revive such occasions.

See the video for Arabic Braille letters, and the pictures of previous year activity.

Card For Mom

On Mother's day, also blind students can do cards for them.

My students do that, first they wrote it using Braille.

Then use 3D stickers and colored cartoons to design it as what they like,

After that, I translate the braille words into Arabic to let his mother understand it.

They enjoy a lot, they are proud of themselves, feel equally with their friends.

The best thing is their smile when they finish it and give it to their mothers.
