The Beautiful Story of Helen Keller
It is very hard to even imagine somebody being blind AND deaf. I would only imagine it being in a complete darkness. I am sure as a kid Helen must have been in a complete darkness. No wonder she was frustrated. I would imagine her world completely differently as a young adult. I see her teacher Annie had opened the whole world for her by teaching her words and how to read. I see as a colorful beautiful world with an open path to travel, explore... indefinite,... endless....
Helen Keller
Imagine that you couldn't see these words or hear them spoken. But you could still talk, write, read, and make friends. In fact, you went to college, wrote nearly a dozen books, traveled all over the world, met 12 U.S. presidents, and lived to be 87. Well, there was such a person, and she was born over a hundred years ago!
Helen Keller the lady with courage. She gave an example to world, how things can be achieved not matter how it difficult to achieve. Among her great achievements, the achievement I like the most is, she graduated from a school, where all her classmates are able to speak/hear and see.
I will finish my writing my saluting this great lady.

Hi class
true inspiration-helen keller
Helen Keller
Helen Keller was a miracle girl. During the reading of story she comes out as bold and girl with high confidance and couriosity to achive things which was said to be impossible for people like here. Eventhough she was bild and deaf she planed to achive edjucation which is not possible and she achived that
Helen Keller
Deaf and Blind !!!
Helen Keller had a bittersweet life. When she was one and a half years old, she caught a high fever. When the fever was gone, she could not see or hear. Her parents had many difficulties with Helen like sticking her two hands in their food and throwing it across the table. One night she thought it was morning and her mother tried to put her back into her bed but she refused. One day a teacher, named Annie, came. If you read this book you will see how Annie changed Helen’s life!
We knew some facts about Helen Keller before we read this book but after we read it we learned so much more about her. Now we know almost everything about Helen Keller’s life from the time she was born to when she past away. We liked Annie because she helped Helen to learn and grow. We liked Helen because she believed in herself. We also liked when Helen Keller spoke her first sentence. She said, "It is warm." We grew happier as we kept reading the book. We think Helen Keller was very lucky because Annie, Sarah, and everyone else believed in her. We liked Neverne Covington’s illustrations because we can see the strokes of paint. The illustrations are colorful and they match the words.
I think this book is a thumbs up book because Annie made Helen believe in herself which encouraged Helen to never give up. I recommend this book to people who are interested in biographies, people who are interested in how people learn to overcome a handicap, and history. I also recommend this book to people who like shadow and colors in their illustrations! I recommend this book to teachers and people who want to teach a lesson.

As it shows in the picture I've chosen, Helen Keller's life was not about seeing, not about hearing, but about FEELING. There were no words in her life, no colours, no noises, no light, no dark, no shadows or faces. There was though the inner scream to see in the dark that defeated her destiny. And even though she never saw the sun, she did see more than some of us will ever see in a lifetime.
A real story about curage, about strenght and haw you can create new ways to comunicate with the world. It's not all about words and pictures life is more complex than that. Haw you act Haw you walk haw you eat ,,,,all is just a way of talking about yourself you just need the capacity to undestend it.
In Helen’s own words:
“The public must learn that the blind man is neither genius nor a freak nor an idiot. He has a mind that can be educated, a hand which can be trained, ambitions which it is right for him to strive to realise, and it is the duty of the public to help him make the best of himself so that he can win light through work.”
THE LEGEND HELEN STORY
Helen adams keller was born on 27 june 1880 Tuscumbia, a small rural town in North west Alabama, USA. When Helen was nineteen months old , she got" brain fever".This illness had left her both blind and deaf.Helen’s progress from then on was astonishing. Her ability to learn was far in advance of anything that anybody had seen before in someone without sight or hearing. It wasn’t long before Anne was teaching Helen to read, firstly with raised letters and later with braille, and to write with both ordinary and braille typewriters.In 1918 Helen, Anne and John moved to Forest Hills in New York. Helen used their new home as a base for her extensive fundraising tours for the American Foundation for the Blind. She not only collected money, but also campaigned tirelessly to alleviate the living and working conditions of blind people, who at that time were usually badly educated and living in asylums. Her endeavours were a major factor in changing these conditions.
Helen Keller, The Hope for Many
Helen Keller, a deaf and blind girl, who became a sensational woman in the world with her relentless efforts in making her otherwise miserable life a livable and inspirational one, is like a torch in the dark for millions of people who are physically challenged like her.
Also, it is imperative to understand how essential it is to provide people like Helen with the necessary support they need. If there were no people like Annie and Sarah to assist Helen, would she be able to achieve those miracles and be a hope for many people like her?
Life is wonderfull and we must realize we have all the tools to discover it. For Hellen Keller was hard, because she was deaf and blind, but she had the power to go ahead. She has to be a model for all of us. She wanted all the time to impove herself. Her judgment and critical thinking help her to realise all she wanted. Unfortunatelly, she heard and saw this world much better than most of us.
Hellen keller was in a very poor situation where she could not see or hear what's happening around her until she met her teacher Annie.Annie brought hellen a new hope for her life,where she teached her how to recognize things around her.Hellen determination is very inspirational to kids who are blind and deaf.Hellen's motivation made her learn to speak and graduate with honors.
Helen Keller was a lady born with blindness and deafness. Helen was very insocent child and lost her vision and hearing because of illness. But with the help of the teacher Annie she learn how to survive in the world. Annie teach keller by her own way including punishment and hardtime. Initial it was very difficult but Annie was also very strict.
Helen Keller also went to Perkins institution and on way to her career. She struggle a log to become successfull women and she did it.She also write some books.
After reading the whole story of Helen Keller we should learn that we should never give up with out life in any kind of situation. " Will Will Find a Way" Always accept challenge and ready to fight in all situation.

Critical thinking is an important and vital topic in modern education. All educators are interested in teaching critical thinking to their students. Many academic departments hope that its professors and instructors will become informed about the strategy of teaching critical thinking skills, identify areas in one's courses as the proper place to emphasize and teach critical thinking, and develop and use some problems in exams that test students' critical thinking skills

Thinking is often casual or routine, whereas critical thinking deliberately evaluates the quality of thinking.Critical thinking can occur whenever one judges, decides, or solves a problem; in general, whenever one must figure out what to believe or what to do, and do so in a reasonable and reflective way. Reading, writing, speaking, and listening can all be done critically or uncritically. Critical thinking is crucial to becoming a close reader and a substantive writer.

Hi Class
My views on critical thinking
'Critical thinking' and 'critical analysis' are terms which are consistently used by academics in explanations of what is required by students in their university work as well as in feedback about what is lacking in student assignments.

critical thinking
Critical thinking might involve determining the meaning and significance of what is observed or expressed, or, concerning a given inference or argument, determining whether there is adequate justification to accept the conclusion as true!!!
Critical Thinking
It is the analysis of any object or issue in all dimensions so as to come to an unbiased and well balanced judgement if required.
In my opinion, Critical thinking includes a complex combination of skills. Critical thinking enables us to recognize a wide range of subjective analyses of objective data, and to evaluate how well each analysis might meet our needs. Facts may be facts, but how we interpret them may vary from each other.
critical thinking
Critical thinking is the careful, deliberate determination of whether we should accept, reject, or suspend judgment about a claim and the degree of confidence with which we accept or reject it.[1] It is a purposeful and reflective judgment about what to believe or what to do in response to observations, experience, verbal or written expressions
.......critical thinking?
First of all what is critical means..... it relates that the issue is at very important juncture or at the turning point.
Since you are at very important juncture, it is very crucial to think about your further leap from each and every aspect and its consequences. So, it is almost like brainstorming of your ideas related to certain topic or further step.
Critical thinking, to sum it up, is nothing but precisely and deliberately taking further steps about anything.

critical thinking.
critical thinking is helpful in solving problems when at stake.critical thinking must be related to things related to life whcih influences in making certain important decisions.it should be progressive and meaningful in achieving the task.
Critical Thinking by Uttam
Critical thinking is a method where we conclude, observe, analyse of perticular topics. In critical thinking we either accept or reject perticular topics. We analyse perticular topics by getting all information, debate from all aspect and whether to accept or reject. In my opinion Critical Thinking is very necessary before taking any decision.
