4.0 out of 5 stars Great book for teaching literacy Sep 20 2007
By Heather B. Brooks - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a great book if you are trying to teach Braille. It works for small chlidren learning to read for the first time or for adults who have lost their vision. I love, love, love her functional approach. It includes ideas like having a braille rich environment and creating stories together in braille. It gives all the steps you need to provide braille instruction. Through Patterns away - it's boring! This is fun and custom made for your kids or adults!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Resource April 5 2010
By Sweetestjoy - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is a great book! I used many of these suggestions when working with my functional academics students. Several of them moved on to their next environments with basic braille skills to help them out. It takes a bit of work to prepare some of the suggestions, but it is well worth it!
