Maryland Common Core State Curriculum Frameworks for Braille

Maryland Common Core State Curriculum Frameworks for Braille: Mathematics and for Braille: English/Language Arts

The Maryland Common Core State Curriculum Frameworks for Braille are based on the same Maryland Common Core Curriculum Frameworks that were adopted by the State Board and include the identified braille skills and expectations at each grade level (Prekindergarten through grade twelve) for students who read braille.  The standards provide a clear roadmap of braille instruction for teachers and parents to improve literacy skills for students who read braille. They provide higher, grade-level expectations that are aligned to the Common Core.

In order to view the simulated braille in the Word format, one must download free braille fonts and install them in the fonts’ folder. Fonts can be downloaded at: https://www.tsbvi.edu/campus-resources/accessibility/braille-and-asl-fonts
