What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · July 1, 2026
This is the tactile (physical/braille) edition of the Elevate Science curriculum for students with visual impairments, produced by the American Printing House for the Blind. APH adapts mainstream science textbooks into accessible formats — this version provides embossed tactile graphics and braille text so a student who is blind or has low vision can access the same science content as sighted peers. It's designed for a student using the Elevate Science curriculum in a general education or specialized classroom setting where print materials aren't accessible. This is a direct instructional material tied to a specific curriculum, so it only makes sense for students enrolled in a program using Elevate Science — check the grade level and module before ordering, as APH produces multiple volumes and formats for this series.
