During the past 50 years, teachers have used contracted braille as the preferred method of teaching reading to children and adults. Contracted braille, previously referred to as grade 2 braille, involves the use of the traditional alphabet, along with 189 different characters and contractions that represent a group of letters or whole words (Ashcroft, Henderson, Sanford, & Koenig, 1994). Over 450 rules govern the use of these contractions (Miller & Rash, 2001).
