Professional guidance helps A teacher can read this booklet on their own, so nothing about it is hard to get started with. But it is one piece of a larger program, and using the program well with a child who has a visual impairment is much easier with help from a TVI or other specialist.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

This is a short print booklet that introduces the Building on Patterns (BOP) program to a preschool classroom teacher. BOP is an inclusive program, and the booklet is meant to help a teacher get oriented before using it with students, including children who are blind or have low vision. It's a companion for the teacher, not something children use themselves, and it points to the program's online overview and resources for more.
