Subject: UEB in MO

 

Hello All, 

 

In May, I wrote requesting your assistance in gathering information
regarding MO activities related to the transition from English Braille
American Edition to Unified English Braille. Attached is a summary (that I
indicated I would share) of responses received to date regarding MO
activities and plans relative to UEB implementation. Thanks to everyone for
their responsiveness and participation. If I have made any errors in
reporting or you would like to add information, please contact me. 

____________________________________________

Also want to share this information on supporting students who are older in
making the transition from EBAE to USB from the Paths to Literacy website
http://www.pathstoliteracy.org/.
