C
In April, Lego started a new project with its famous toy—Braille bricks(盲文积木)—to help blind children learn to read and write.
Braille is a way of writing for blind people. It uses letters and numbers with groups of dots(圆点), which are made into holes in paper. Then the blind can “read” these dots with their fingers. The invention of Braille changed the lives of blind people around the world. But learning to read and write Braille can be hard. It needs lots of practice, which can become really boring.
Lego's Braille bricks serve as a simple and fun way for children to learn Braille. Unlike the normal Lego bricks, the small dots on the bricks are put as Braille letters. Blind children can “read” the dots to learn Braille when playing with the bricks. Lego's Braille bricks also have printed letters on them that match the Braille letters, so sighted(有视力的) children and blind children can play with the Lego bricks together.
What's more, Lego's Braille bricks are convenient to use. Traditional Braille is often written with a special machine. It's hard to fix when children make a wrong letter, because the letter is “written” by hitting holes into the paper. Lego, on the other hand, can be moved around easily. If a student makes a mistake, correcting it is as simple as moving or changing a brick. That's important when children are learning to spell words.
So far, Lego's Braille bricks have been tried in four countries. Next, the Lego company plans to test them in more countries. The company wants to learn more about how children use the bricks and how the bricks could be improved.
