It's World Braille Day! Celebrated annually on January 4th, this day recognises the contributions of Louis Braille in helping blind and visually impaired people to read and write.
Explain to your students that Braille is a tactile representation of alphabetic and numerical symbols using six dots to represent each letter and number, and even musical, mathematical, and scientific symbols. And since Braille is essential in the context of education, celebrate the day with your English learners!
