In the process of determining if a child has a visual impairment, Sec. 614(d)(3)(B)(iii) of IDEA requires the IEP Team to provide braille instruction unless the IEP Team determines, after an evaluation of the child's reading and writing skills, needs, and appropriate reading and writing media (including an evaluation of the child's future needs for instruction in braille or the use of braille), that instruction in braille or the use of braille is not appropriate for the child. If the determination has been made that a child will be given braille instruction, the resources below can facilitate Learning, Obtaining, Teaching, and Supporting braille.
