Professional guidance helps This is a teacher's guide for a full literacy program, so it fits best with professional support. A teacher of students with visual impairments can match the pacing to the child and tie the lessons to their goals. A family can read the guide, but the lessons work best with someone trained in teaching braille.

What it is

Summary

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

This is the print teacher kit for the second edition of Building on Patterns, a kindergarten program that teaches beginning braille users reading, writing, and spelling. It's the teacher's half of the program, so each braille learner will also need their own student kit. The teacher kit comes in print or braille, and this is the print version, which suits a teacher or aide who reads print and guides the lessons.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Look through the teacher materials to see how the lessons are laid out before you start.
  • With a guide
    1. Order one student kit for each braille learner so every child has their own materials.
    2. Plan the lesson order and pacing with the learner's teacher of students with visual impairments (TVI) before the first session.
