That's So Silly

Building on Patterns (BOP) is a complete primary literacy program designed to teach beginning braille users all language arts -- reading, writing, and spelling.

Note: Building on Patterns: Second Grade replaces Patterns Second and Third Reader Levels.

The Building on Patterns series addresses phonemic awareness (ability to hear and interpret sounds in speech), phonics (the association of written symbols with the sounds they represent), comprehension, fluency, and oral vocabulary, all of which have been identified as important for reading instruction.

This program also addresses specific skill areas needed by the child who is blind, such as language development, sound discrimination, tactual discrimination, and concept development. Braille contractions are introduced from the beginning along with sound and letter associations. Expanded Core Curriculum (ECC) skills such as using tactile graphics and technology are also included.

New Features

    . Timed reading in each lesson 

    . Simplified lesson-monitoring sheets

    . More independent reading suggestions

    . Spelling Dictionary

    . Quick Read for silent reading and reading comprehension practice 

BOP Second Grade includes more worksheets, part-word braille contractions and other remaining literary contractions and symbols and rules for using them, emphasis on syllables and multisyllabic words and the effect of certain letter combinations on vowel sounds, and the foreign origin of at least one spelling word in each lesson. 

Prerequisite: Building on Patterns: First Grade or equivalent skills.

Recommended Ages: 7 to 8 years

Building on Patterns: First Grade Level: Unit 6 Animal Shapes and Pages Set

6-78467-00 -- $39.00

http://shop.aph.org/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_Building%20on%20Patterns:%20Primary%20Braille%20Literacy%20Program:%20First%20Grade%20Level:%20Unit%206%20Animal%20Shapes%20and%20Pages%20Set_6-78467-00P_10001_11051

This fun and educational "animal crackers" puzzle was developed from page 51 in the student text, "More Animal Tales," in BOP First Grade, Unit 6, Lesson 33. It includes four copies of the page with nests and four sets of INEDIBLE animal shapes that fit the nests. Each sheet contains nests for 13 different animals. The name of each animal is given in braille, and a tactile symbol before it shows the direction the animal is facing, i.e. < nose to the left or > nose to the right. 

If appropriate for your student, you can use real animal crackers with this product, which will help children connect the real thing with the activity and may be more motivational than using the inedible shapes. Later, use the pretend animal crackers to play with the nests when the real ones are gone. Be sure that children understand that these pretend crackers cannot be eaten.

WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - Small parts. Not intended for children ages 5 and under without adult supervision.
