What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Open the kit and look through the materials so you know what each piece teaches.
  • With a guide
    1. Read the manufacturer's guidance on how the lessons are meant to be used with a child.
    2. Plan short, regular sessions and adjust the pace to the child's responses.
  • With professional help
    A teacher of students with visual impairments or a speech-language pathologist can help choose the right starting point and match the symbols to the child's needs. Plan on an initial planning session, then check in as the child progresses.
