Learning Braille Alphabets K-T

My focus for this week’s learning project was alphabets k to t.

These set of alphabets follow the pattern of adding a dot 3 to each character in the first set of braille alphabets a- j.

I bought the mat below to use to feel the raised dots of the alphabet while learning the alphabet. It is an incredibly good mat that I can take anywhere with me and continue my practice. Even at bedtime instead of using my phone to practice, I just touch it and repeat my alphabets before I sleep. to practice.

K – T

The letters K through T in Braille represent an ingenious extension of the first ten letters, A to J. Each letter from K to T is formed by adding the raised dot 3 to the corresponding letter from A to J.

This efficient design means that once you are familiar with the first ten letters, you already possess the knowledge to identify these additional letters with ease.

For instance, the Braille letter K is formed by adding dot 3 to the configuration of the letter A.

This pattern is consistent throughout this group of letters, simplifying the learning process significantly. Here are the Braille codes for the Braille letters K to T:

• K: Dots 1 and 3
• L: Dots 1, 2, and 3
• M: Dots 1, 3, and 4
• N: Dots 1, 3, 4, and 5
• O: Dots 1, 3, and 5
• P: Dots 1, 2, 3, and 4
• Q: Dots 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5
• R: Dots 1, 2, 3, and 5
• S: Dots 2, 3, and 4
• T: Dots 2, 3, 4, and 5

I also used the Braille Academy app to do some practice and will be taking the challenges for these sets of alphabets next week. Also , for next week I will focus on learning alphabet U TO Z  ,punctuations and uncontracted and contracted Braille.

Thanks for reading my post and hope to update you on my progress next week .
