When Laura was 7, a school called Perkins for people like her opened. The head teacher of the school, Howe, had learned about Laura and wanted to help her.
“This is the best chance for Laura,” Howe said to Laura’s parents. Her parents agreed.
Howe began to teach Laura to communicate in English. He put notes on common things like a key, a cup and a desk. The notes had the name of each thing printed in raised(凸起的) letters.

Finger spelling was next. Howe taught Laura the different finger positions(位置) for each letter, and then put his fingers into Laura’s hand as he spelt words. After practising for thousands of times, Laura could talk with her fingers!She jumped up and hugged Howe with a big smile.
Laura Bridgman later taught many students like her. She changed their lives for the better.
