In order to promote their growth, development, and ability to communicate, young children who are visually impaired and have additional disabilities need to learn to use their
sense of touch effectively and develop skills that are not necessarily based on the use of vision. Highlighting critical information for families as well as for communication experts, this user-friendly new manual provides you with both essential information about alternative communication and countless practical
strategies and insights to create effective solutions for working with children. Teachers, early interventionists, and parents looking for valuable techniques will find them here, on topics ranging from how to assess a child's
tactile skills to how to interact effectively with children and plan interventions. The suggestions and insights in Tactile Strategies will be welcome additions to your
teaching plans.
