My role is to:
- To give you information the student's visual impairment and its implications for the classroom.
- To provide suggestions for adaptations/modifications within the classroom.
- To modify and prepare materials (we will transcribe worksheets into braille and will also adapt any other materials/activities—for instance, we might need to make a tactile version of a science game). You can give us materials to adapt at our weekly check in meetings or we can set up a box within the classroom for you to place materials.
- To work one on one with the student within the classroom as appropriate.
- To maintain and provide assistance/training with the student's assistive technology.
- To work directly with the student on Braille (as it relates to reading and math), assistive technology, social skills, independent living skills and travel skills.
