Here is the wonderful literacy material created at Concord Area Special Education Collaborative (CASE) by Tess, Speech and Langauge Therapist and Sue, Preschool classroom teacher for the February theme of Hearts. It presents a clear, red heart as a single image on the page then uses the same salient feature with a variety of textures for each page.
Staff that understand CVI (Cortical/Cerebral Visual Impairment) well create fantastic materials based on their firm understanding of the characteristics of CVI and their child’s needs determined after assessment. They then created individual books adapted for each child to share with family.
Each page is presented with predictable text and funny voice for each type of heart. (The voice can be read aloud by the teacher or parent, or it can be recorded and played with a switch by the child.)
