Professional guidance helps This is a professional curriculum guide intended for use by a credentialed Teacher of Students with Visual Impairments (TVI). It is not a consumer product — it requires professional training in braille literacy instruction and integration into an IEP-driven educational plan. A parent or general education teacher could not effectively use this without TVI expertise.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · July 6, 2026

This is the Teacher of Visual Impairments (TVI) companion booklet for the Building on Patterns prekindergarten literacy curriculum, printed in braille. Building on Patterns is APH's braille literacy program designed to teach young students who are blind or have significant vision loss to read and write braille from the ground up — this particular booklet is the specialist-facing guide for the TVI supporting a pre-K student. It's one component of a larger curriculum set, not a standalone teaching kit; the full BOP program includes student materials, consumables, and additional teacher guides that need to be purchased separately. TVIs new to this curriculum should budget time to review all program components before beginning instruction, as this booklet covers the pre-K entry point specifically.
