What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · June 18, 2026
This is a tactile edition of the i-Ready Classroom Mathematics Volume 1 textbook, produced by the American Printing House for the Blind (APH) for students who are blind or have low vision. The original i-Ready Classroom Mathematics curriculum — widely used in K–8 classrooms — has been adapted with tactile graphics and braille so that blind students can access the same math content as their sighted peers. It's a direct curriculum replacement, not a supplement, meaning a student uses this instead of the standard print textbook in a general education math class. Federal Quota funds are available, which means eligible students can receive this through their state's quota allocation rather than paying out of pocket. Tactile math materials require a student who reads braille and has some familiarity with tactile graphics — an orientation from a Teacher of Students with Visual Impairments (TVI) is strongly recommended to ensure the student can interpret the tactile diagrams accurately.
