Price is what the vendor listed when last checked. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Professional setup required This is an assessment piece, not a book a student reads on their own. It needs a trained teacher to give the test and make sense of the results. Using it the wrong way could give misleading results about a child's braille reading progress, so professional involvement is required.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Read through the manual before test day so you know how the posttest is meant to be given.
  • With a guide
    1. Gather the other second grade program materials the posttest goes with.
    2. Check the program overview and resources pages at aphbop.org for guidance on how the posttest fits into the program.
  • With professional help
    A teacher of students with visual impairments (TVI) should give the posttest and read the results, since it is an assessment tied to a braille literacy program. Plan time to review the manual before testing.
