Building on Patterns: Primary Braille Literacy Program: First Grade Posttest Teacher's Manual, Print
$15.90
This is the print teacher's manual for the first grade posttest in the Building on Patterns primary braille literacy program, written for the adult who gives and scores the test. It is an optional add-on to the first grade, UEB (Unified English Braille) level of the program, so it only makes sense for classrooms already using that curriculum.

Collaborative Assessment: Working with Students Who Are Blind or Visually Impaired, Including Those with Additional Disabilities (Print)
$71.95
This print book is written for the professionals who work with students who are blind or visually impaired, including students with additional disabilities.

It is a reference for teachers and clinicians, not something a student uses directly.

Ambutech Tandem Bar Mobility Training Guide
$19.28
The Tandem Bar is a rigid, lightweight fiberglass shaft that clips onto an instructor's white cane and a student's white cane just above the tips. When the instructor moves their cane, the student feels that same motion in their own cane. This lets an Orientation and Mobility instructor show good cane technique by hand, such as a steady arc, shore lining, obstacle detection, and stair skills, and helps build muscle memory through repetition. It works with both children and adults. It's a teaching tool for instructors, not a cane for everyday travel, and it only works if you already have two canes to connect. When not in use, it clips to the instructor's cane just under the grip.

Barraga Visual Efficiency Program Book Set
$269.00
This set holds two print books from the Barraga Visual Efficiency Program: the Program Book and the Perceptual Skills Evaluation Book. They are replacement pieces for the full Barraga kit, which is used to evaluate and build visual skills in children with low vision. You'd use them with a teacher of students with visual impairments or a similar specialist, not on your own at home. It's a set of books only, so it doesn't replace the complete kit.

Accessible Multiple Choice Answer Sheets: Pop-A-Dot (4-pack)
$87.22
These answer sheets let a student mark multiple choice answers by pressing down a raised plastic dot, then pop it back up to change an answer without help. The dots are tactile and high contrast, so they work for students who read by touch or by sight. Choices a through e run across each row. The advanced sheets hold questions 1-20 in two columns, and the beginning sheets hold questions 1-10. You can mix the two kinds to fit the number of items on a test. Because the dots are pushed rather than filled in with a pencil, the sheets may also suit students who find writing hard.

$14.27
This is the braille teacher's manual for the posttest in the Building on Patterns primary braille literacy program, second grade.

Barraga Visual Efficiency Program
$729.00

The bowls in the kit may come in different colors, so don't count on a specific color.

Assessment Switch Kit
Est. $400–$900
This kit puts a range of different switches in one plastic carrying box so a clinician can try several and see which one a person can use most reliably. The switches work in different ways, including waving a hand near a sensor, tapping a flat pad, pressing a button, moving the chin, and a finger-mounted button. Some give a click or touch cue and some need almost no pressure. This is a tool for the person doing the evaluation, not a switch to hand to a user to keep. You'll still need a device for the switches to control, and the list shown is partial, so check the full contents before ordering.

$14.80

The charts are also offered as Word files on the program's website, so they can be filled in on a computer. It's a companion to the Building on Patterns Pre-K curriculum and isn't a standalone learning product, so it only makes sense if you're already using that program with a young child.

The posttest is described as an important piece of the second grade UEB (Unified English Braille) level of the program.

It is the teacher's manual only, so you would need the rest of the Building on Patterns second grade materials for it to be useful.

Amsler Grid 50-Sheet Pad With Magnet
$3.95
This is a pad of 50 paper Amsler grid sheets, each 6.5" x 5.5", for checking your own vision at home. You look at the grid, mark anything that looks off on the sheet, and bring the marked sheets to your eye care professional to review. A magnet on the back of the pad lets you hang it at a steady spot. It's a simple tracking aid for noticing changes over time, not a diagnosis, so the results need to be read by a professional.

Kit #2 includes everything in Kit #1 and adds a Sound Activated Switch and a Sip & Puff Switch, which suits people with more involved needs. The kits are for trying out which switch works best for someone, so they are a tool for the person doing the evaluation rather than something to buy for everyday use.

ISAVE: OccluderPop Pack (3-pack)
$4.00

It is meant for visual assessment, where a clinician or teacher needs to check how well each eye sees. The same occluder is also included in APH's ISAVE assessment kit, so this pack works as a way to restock or add spares.
