Description:
These are two keyboards I originally found elsewhere, probably on (Boardmakershare) that have been adapted for a visually impaired young lady I work with. One is a spelling board; all the vowels are arranged vertically on the left side of the board. The other is set up like a regular keyboard. Since the letters & the buttons need to be bigger, the message display boxes are small. The student can write more than what space is provided in the message display box. When the message display box is printed out, all that was written will be printed, whether or not you still see it in the message display box. My student likes the colors, but they could easily be changed to accommodate other users preferences.
