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

Setup with instructions The kit is made of print-style learning materials with no device to set up, so a teacher or family member can start with documentation. It does work best alongside the program's teacher materials and a plan for pacing the lessons. That makes guided setup a better fit than self-serve.

What it is

Summary

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

This is the Unit 5 student kit for first grade in the Building on Patterns program, which teaches beginning braille readers reading, writing, and spelling. It includes a student textbook and worksheets, and the worksheets now follow Unified English Braille (UEB). The textbook needed no changes for UEB. You'll want the matching teacher materials for the program to use it well, since this kit holds the student-side pieces.
