Professional guidance helps This is a teacher's guide, so it is meant for an educator, not for the student to use alone. It works best when a teacher of students with visual impairments plans the lessons and sets the pace for each child. A parent could read it, but the best results come from professional guidance.

  • With a guide
    1. Lay out the Going and Doing Student Kit next to this guide and match each lesson to its student materials.
