In the CBSE Class 2 chapter Seeing without Seeing, students learn about how people who cannot see use their sense of touch and hearing to understand the world. The chapter focuses on Braille, a special script with raised dots that helps visually impaired people read with their fingers. It is an important chapter for young learners because it teaches empathy, kindness, and how special our senses are.
