Building on Patterns: Primary Braille Literacy Program: First Grade Posttest Teacher's Manual, Braille - UEB

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · June 18, 2026

This is the teacher's manual for the first-grade posttest component of Building on Patterns (BOP), APH's structured braille literacy curriculum — printed in Unified English Braille (UEB). It gives teachers a standardized way to assess student progress at the end of first grade braille instruction, with the manual itself written in braille so a teacher of the visually impaired (TVI) who reads braille can work directly from it. This is a supplementary assessment piece within the larger BOP program, not a standalone curriculum — it assumes the teacher is already running the full Building on Patterns sequence. Schools or TVIs who haven't adopted BOP will find little use for it outside that context.

What Setup Looks Like

• Out of the box
  Open and use directly as a braille-format teacher's reference during posttest administration.
• With professional help
  
  1. A Teacher of the Visually Impaired (TVI) administers the posttest as part of the Building on Patterns first-grade sequence.
  2. Coordinate timing with the broader BOP curriculum pacing. See aphbop.org for full program guidance.
