What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · July 6, 2026
This is a dual-format math book from APH that presents fraction, decimal, and percent concepts in both print and Nemeth braille code simultaneously — the 'flip-over' design lets a sighted teacher and a braille-reading student work from the same book at the same time, just from opposite sides. It's built for elementary-age students who are blind or have low vision and are learning foundational numeracy alongside sighted classmates. The book includes tactile graphics and hands-on elements so students can explore concepts like part-whole relationships without needing a separate adapted version. Because this uses Nemeth braille (the mathematical braille code, not standard literary braille), students and teachers should already have some familiarity with Nemeth notation to get full value from it.

What Setup Looks Like
- Out of the box
Open the book and use whichever side — print or braille — matches the reader; no assembly or setup required. - With professional help
- A teacher of the visually impaired (TVI) familiar with Nemeth code should introduce the book and guide instruction.
- Coordinate use with the student's IEP math goals — typically integrated into existing math sessions over weeks to months.
