Math can pose a challenge for students with visual impairment and blindness due its visual and abstract nature. This episode we are going to learn about math aids that can be used not only during instruction for students but on the state assements. (There are no affiliate links listed below.)
Points to remember:Accommodations provided to students with disabilities as part of the instructional and assessment process should allow equal opportunity to access the assessments in the Virginia Assessment ProgramAccommodations used on the state assessments must be documented in the student’s Individualized Education Program (IEP) or 504 Plan and used in daily instruction.ImportanceMath aids can help our VI students with understanding the same information that their sighted peers have.If you know your students can use these during instruction, and SOL that is helpful!Number LinesAPH tactile number line- A number line may be blank or printed with whole numbers.
