An Introduction to Music Braille - You Can Translate with Free Tools

Saturday, January 25, 2025
9:00 AM - 9:45 AM

Description
Students with visual impairments are often left without music to read in music classes. The district-provided Braille translators may not have music training, making it incredibly difficult for them to translate music into braille. You (the music teacher) can learn to translate music into braille with a couple of simple resources and a free program.
