What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 14, 2026
These are tactile number cards with raised shapes designed for students who are blind or have low vision learning foundational mathematics concepts. Each card combines a numeral with a raised geometric shape, giving students a way to explore number-quantity relationships through touch rather than sight. This is a replacement component for the FOCUS in Mathematics kit from APH — it's not a standalone curriculum but a piece of a larger tactile math program. If you don't already have the full kit, purchasing just this pack won't give you a complete learning system.
