Question

helens life in cambridge school

Answer 1

In the autumn of the year 1896, Helen "entered the Cambridge School for Young Ladies, to be prepared for Radcliffe [College]."  She quickly discovered that school was quite an adjustment.  The teachers there were not used to teaching blind or deaf students.  Helen needed many accommodations to complete her coursework.  Her teacher, Annie Sullivan, assisted Helen by fingerspelling the lectures and readings into her hand.  The only other way that Helen could communicate with her instructors was to press her fingers against their mouths as they spoke.
Helen learnt many subjects there. These subjects range from literature to history. there was a great amount of work required for her classes. Helen was assigned large section of reading. It was too much for Miss Sullivan to spell into Helen's hand. There were not many books with raised print.
Cambridge was full of adventures. handmade friends some of whom learn to communicate with Helen. her sister mildred also joined that school
