Braille and VI Ideas

A teacher friend of mine created a "cheat sheet" for us on the CHALKBOARD 😂 for those of us that are helping students with Braille.  I still find that I reference it often for reminders when I'm helping students or creating materials.  Here is an example of how she set it up for us at school.  It is so helpful.  (I will try to link the word documents as soon as I figure out how to do that).  Below is a cupcake/muffin tin idea.  I just painted the baseballs to help illustrate the "cheat sheet."  Students can move the baseball around the tin (aka braille cell) to practice their letters.  Paths to Literacy has some more examples on how to use this strategy.  The last image shows how to use the tin with containers to help students explore textures and sounds.
