There is no one size fits all when it comes to creating books for students who have Cerebral/Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI). Think of these books as a "starter kit,"-a flexible foundation that can be customized and adjusted to suit the individual needs of your students. Inclusive material formats that can be used with most learners.
The CVI on the Fly: Quick Start Guide for Families offers insights and practical advice for parents and caregivers of children with Cerebral Visual Impairment (CVI). Written by a parent and advocate with life experience, this guide emphasizes the importance of understanding CVI, observing your child’s unique visual behaviors, and adapting environments to better support their visual needs. It provides actionable tips for integrating meaningful learning experiences into daily routines, helping children with CVI thrive. A great resource for families looking to begin their journey with CVI, this guide encourages a collaborative approach with professionals, particularly Teachers for the Visually Impaired (TVIs), to foster growth and independence.
"INVITATION"
by Shel Silverstein.
If you are a dreamer, come in,
If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,
A hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer...
If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire
For we have some flax-golden tales to spin.
Come in!
Come in!
