Setup with instructions This is part of a structured curriculum, and it works best when a trained teacher leads the lessons, watches progress, and gives the unit assessments. Without that guidance, a student can fall behind or miss skills, so professional involvement is required.

This is the student kit for Unit 1 of the second grade level of Building on Patterns, a primary braille literacy program in Unified English Braille (UEB). The program teaches beginning braille users reading, writing, and spelling together, so it covers all of language arts.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Open the kit and check the contents against what your teacher plans to use for Unit 1.
  • With a guide
    1. Review the Unit 1 lessons and the Lesson Monitoring Sheets before the first session so you know the order of activities.
    2. Plan short, regular lesson times and track progress on the monitoring sheets. Allow about an hour for planning.
  • With professional help
    A teacher of students with visual impairments (TVI) or braille instructor should lead the program, match it to the student's braille skills, and track progress with the assessment packet. This is ongoing work across the unit.
