Professional guidance helps The board is simple to open and use, but the real benefit comes from how it is used. A teacher of students with visual impairments or a therapist can choose the right activities, pace the sounds from easy to hard, and tie the work to the child's learning goals. That is why professional guidance is recommended, though a family can still try it on their own.

What it is

The Sound Matching Board I is a board with sound cylinders that students pair up by listening, which builds auditory matching and discrimination along with fine motor skills. It's a hands-on learning material for young children who are learning to tell sounds apart without relying on sight.
