Price is what the vendor listed when last checked. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Setup with instructions The book needs no setup, but it is one part of a full literacy program. A teacher or family member works best with the program's guide materials to lead the lessons in the right order, so guided setup fits better than fully self-serve.

What it is

Summary

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

This is the Unit 2 student textbook for the first grade level of the Building on Patterns primary braille literacy program, written in Unified English Braille (UEB). It is printed as interpoint braille, meaning both sides of each page carry braille, so a young braille reader works straight from the book. It is sold as a replacement for the book that comes in the Unit 2 student kit, so it fits a student who already uses that program and needs a new copy.
