In preparation for a group discussion, read about when Helen Keller first met Anne Sullivan.

I felt approaching footsteps, I stretched out my hand as I supposed to my mother. Some one took it, and I was caught up and held close in the arms of her who had come to reveal all things to me, and, more than all things else, to love me.

The morning after my teacher came she led me into her room and gave me a doll. The little blind children at the Perkins Institution had sent it and Laura Bridgman had dressed it; but I did not know this until afterward. When I had played with it a little while, Miss Sullivan slowly spelled into my hand the word "d-o-1-1." I was at once interested in this finger play and tried to imitate it. When I finally succeeded in making the letters correctly I was flushed with childish pleasure and pride...

But my teacher had been with me several weeks before I understood that everything has a name.

Answer the question, In a group discussion, a participant says, "Helen Keller would never have learned had it not been for Anne Sullivan." How would you respond to share your viewpoint? Write three sentences. Answer in 2-3 short sentences

I believe that while Anne Sullivan played a crucial role in Helen Keller's education, it was ultimately Keller's own determination and desire to learn that allowed her to succeed. Keller showed a natural curiosity and willingness to explore the world around her, which was instrumental in her learning journey. Anne Sullivan provided guidance and support, but Keller's own motivation and resilience were key factors in her ability to learn.

Shorter pls

Anne Sullivan was essential in guiding Helen Keller's education, but Keller's own innate curiosity and determination to learn were major contributors to her success. While Sullivan provided support and instruction, Keller's own motivation played a significant role in her ability to learn and overcome challenges.

In my viewpoint, I would respond by saying that while Anne Sullivan played a significant role in Helen Keller's education, it wouldn't be accurate to say that she would never have learned without her. Helen Keller's own determination and intelligence were crucial factors in her ability to learn and communicate. It was a combination of Helen's innate abilities and Anne Sullivan's guidance that led to her remarkable achievements.
