[Mdpobc] Question of the day

[Karen Frech Herstein]

Hi Trudy,I would want my child to be fast and proficient with Braille before I would let him/her use adible books. I would want my sighted child to be proficient in reading print before he/she used adible books. My daughter "loves" to read books and she did not use adible books unless Braille was not available. Braille wasavailable almost all the time.Good Luck!Karen Herstein

> So last night at parent teacher conference I find out that they have been allowing our son in six grade to do all audiobooks. Reason why I don't know. The language arts teacher said will you please consider allowing him to do this after I stated that this was concerning to me. Because he says he wants  reading to be enjoyable. Excepting all thoughts on this.

> Mine is No. Must have Braille under fingers. If their  concern is slowness and enjoyment the only way to get that is with repetition.
