Blind students will learn about Tactile Graphics. Tactile graphics are images that use raised surfaces so that a blind or visually impaired person can feel them. They are used to convey non-textual information such as maps, paintings, graphs and diagrams.
Students will be supervised by blind adults, members of Texas Parents of Blind Children and by a Certified Teacher of the Visually Impaired.
RSVPs are VERY IMPORTANT so we know how many to plan for.
