The mission of Teaching Students with Visual Impairments is to provide all persons involved in the student's education with the necessary resources they need to help each student become successful members of their communities and to equip those in the visual impairment field with a readily available resource to meet the wide range of needs of the students they serve. 

If you are entering, or currently in the vision field, you will find information related to all areas of the Expanded Core Curriculum as well as other resources related to all aspects of instructing students with visual impairments and adapting the environment, materials, and method of instruction. You will also find information on teaching strategies, professional development opportunities, and resources to continue your professional growth. 
​
If you are a classroom teacher, therapist or administrator unfamiliar with working with students who are blind or visually impaired, this site will assist you in preparing and creating a learning environment that is adapted to meet the unique needs of the students and to help you confidently teach them. ​

Braille Jewelry Store

Share your love of braille and start a conversation. I handcraft each piece and hand emboss each metal plate for each necklace. During the COVID-19 pandemic, all braille jewelry sales and creation are suspended. Come back after the global pandemic to select and customize your very own braille jewelry. 

ECC Resource Store

I developed these resources for my own needs as an itinerant teacher and I'm excited to share them with you! I wanted to create a centralized location to store all the activities I have used with students on my caseload over the years. My caseloads have included preschool through high school students with severe and profound disabilities, mild to moderate disabilities as well as students following the standard course of study. I am continuing to develop resources and hope to offer more resources in the near future!
