The U.S. Tactile Map Classroom Pack is an accessible geography resource that includes 15 raised line paper maps of the United States with both print and UEB labels.
The U.S. Tactile Map Classroom Pack provides an all-inclusive solution for teaching the geography of the United States to your class. Each pack contains 15 black-and-white raised line paper maps of the U.S. sized for individual student use. Each state is labeled with both print and UEB braille abbreviations, making the map accessible to students who are blind or have low vision while they learn alongside their sighted peers. These tactile maps reinforce key spatial concepts such as location, distance, scale, and regions and promote independent exploration.
We’ve also included a free downloadable guidebook featuring a complete list of U.S. state capitals along with suggestions for activities. Whether you are introducing geography for the first time or building on more advanced concepts, the U.S. Tactile Map Classroom Pack allows students of all abilities to learn about their country simultaneously with their peers.
