[blindkid] Kindergarten services

[L]

Hi all,
My daughter is starting Kindergarten in the fall.  She is a typically developing 
child except for her vision.  She can read and write about one-third of the 
alphabet and they have started the Patterns program wirth her in pre-school.  In 
pre-school she is getting 1 hour a day four times a week of vision services.  My 
question to you is, how much time should a kindergartener receive for direct 
services with a TBVI?  They are currently suggesting one hour a day.  Should 
this include direct services for math, reading and writing braille?  Should she 
be included for any of the regular kindergarten language arts and reading 
classes or be pulled to be taught braille the entire time.  The current TBVI 
suggested modifying the Kindergarten teachers curriculum and having my daughter 
work in the classroom with the para helping her.  Do kindergarten students 
usually use the regular kindergarten reading series with adaptations, or are 
they pulled out to be taught braille in place of this?  What about science and 
social studies?  Can a para help with all these subjects or should the TBVI be 
doing this?  Thanks for your input.  Laurie
