8-27-16 I also want to respond to the original question about a curriculum for teaching braille code (UEB) to middle-high school student losing vision after already knowing how to read. For the past year, I have been using the following with a high school student who is losing vision: Mangold Basic Braille Program Kit Units 1 & 2 Mangold Basic Braille Program Kit Units 1 & 2 $269.00 Mangold Basic Braille Program Kits, Unit 3: UEB Contractions ($89-$169) Mangold Basic Braille Program Kits, Unit 3: UEB Contractions ($89-$169) $89.00 Exceptional Teaching (ExceptionalTeaching.com) is continuing to update the rest of their program to UEB. It should be ready as you progress through this curriculum. I have been happy with this curriculum and my student has enjoyed it. (We have found a few errors in print and braille worksheets not always matching.)
