What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
A white plastic yardstick with three simultaneous measurement formats: standard raised-line tactile markings, braille numerals, and large-print text. Students who are blind or have low vision can use it for hands-on math and measurement activities without needing sighted assistance to read the scale. This is a complete, ready-to-use tool — no setup, no accessories, no batteries. It's drilled for hanging in a classroom, which is convenient, but at 36 inches it's a standard yardstick length, so it won't substitute for a shorter ruler when working in tight spaces.
