What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · July 6, 2026
This is the print Teacher's Manual for the Kindergarten Posttest component of Building on Patterns (BOP), a structured braille literacy curriculum developed by APH for early learners who are blind or have significant visual impairment. Teachers use this manual to administer and interpret the posttest that assesses a kindergartener's braille reading and writing skills at the end of the BOP Kindergarten sequence. It's a replacement or supplementary copy — the primary audience is teachers of students with visual impairments (TVIs) already running the BOP program in a school setting. This manual alone won't start a braille literacy program; it's one component of the larger Kindergarten Student Kit. The UEB designation confirms it uses Unified English Braille conventions, which is now the standard in North America.
