What is the rising action of The Miracle Worker?
When Helen Keller was a young child, she contracted a high fever that left her sightless and unable to hear. Being the parents of a non-seeing and non-hearing child was a hardship on two loving parents who did all they could but seemed to do it in the wrong way. Out of desperation, they hired a young educator, Anne Sullivan, to teach and train the young Helen. Much to the parent's dismay, Sullivan was a strict and firm disciplinarian with the young, spoiled Keller girl. Sullivan and Helen Keller moved into a house not far down the lane from the main Keller house. There they began to develop a trust and relationship of love and respect for each other. This soon turned into an atmosphere that was ripe for learning without the interference of the Keller parents. Once Helen Keller began to put meaning with the finger spelling that she was doing, she began to learn many words at a rapid rate. Her world began to open and she was able to complete her education and continue advanced training at the university.

How old was Helen Keller when she learned sign language?
Yes she did, before Annie Sullivan came, she used her own rudimentary "home signs" to communicate to the household what she wanted. When Annie came, Annie struggled to teach her the concept of names for objects, and Annie was always finger spelling to Helen. Finger spelling is the sign language alphabet. Helen would copy Annie's fingers, but Helen didn't understand that the letters represented something. Helen's breakthrough was with the word WATER. Annie and Helen were at the water pump, and Annie spelled W-A-T-E-R into Helen's hand. It was then that a light bulb went off in Helen's head, and she understood. Helen then asked who Annie was, and Annie said Teacher. Annie would read books to Helen, spelling the words into Helen's hand until her hands were sore. Helen gave great speeches this way, spelling into Annie's hand who would say the words aloud.
