Helen Keller

J. Henry learned that Helen threw tantrums because she frustrated that she couldn't explain what she wanted.


"Helen made up her own signals to show that she wanted something," said Ayden.

"She was blind and deaf as a result of a bad fever," said Kylie.

JaHyia learned that her teacher was also blind before she taught Helen. She had an operation to fix her vision.
