Creating a Pegboard Book for a Learner with Multiple Disabilities

I created this pegboard book for a second grader with CVI that I worked with in Southern Oregon. He was in a wheelchair, had limited hand/arm strength, and showed difficulty with visually attending to objects, tracking, shift-of-gaze, and using a visually-directed reach. A CVI range was conducted, and he scored a 1-2 on that scale. He was also one of the happiest, silliest kids I’ve had the pleasure of working with! I had a goal to keep him engaged during circle reading time, where his class would break into small groups to read books that were often not accessible to him.
