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

Setup with instructions The graphics need no power or devices, but they work best when someone matches them to the course and shows the student how to explore them by touch. A family member or teacher can do this with the manufacturer's materials, so guided setup fits.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Unpack the graphics and check them against your Earth Science lesson plan to see which topics they cover.
  • With a guide
    1. Look through the set with the student's teacher of students with visual impairments (TVI) and match each graphic to a unit in the course.
    2. Plan a short introduction to reading tactile graphics, such as how to scan a page and find key features. Allow about 30 minutes to get organized.
