When using a slate and stylus you braille starting on the left and going to the right

• A. True
• B. Sometimes
• C. Often
• D. False

Answer: (D)

In slate and stylus writing, you typically work column by column starting from the right edge and moving toward the left, punching dots top to bottom within each column. This orientation comes from how the paper sits over the slate and how the raised dots appear when the page is read. So the idea of starting on the left and moving to the right does not describe the usual method. Instead, start with the rightmost column, fill it, then move left. This helps ensure the finished page reads correctly in braille.
