What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 14, 2026
This is a braille-format version of Illustrative Mathematics Unit 2, a widely used K–12 math curriculum, produced by the American Printing House for the Blind (APH) through their Louis accessible textbook database. It converts standard visual math instructional materials into tactile braille format so students who are blind or have significant vision loss can access the same grade-level curriculum as sighted peers. You're getting a physical braille book (weighing about 8 lbs, so expect a substantial volume), not a digital file — this is the printed tactile artifact itself. This item is Federal Quota eligible, meaning schools can request it through their state's quota allocation rather than purchasing it directly, which is the primary funding path most districts use for APH materials.
