This is a silly, fun way for students to learn the braille dots of the alphabet and their contractions. When using music for learning, we often reuse melodies that sound the same, however with this, each is different and memorable.

Students can practice on their own by just listening. Teachers can use each song when introducing a new letter or contraction to that letter. Either way, it provides a great little song for each.
