Solution:

The term 'visual impairment' is used to refer to not only those who are blind but also those who have low vision. In the teaching-learning process, visually impaired children suffer from an issue with sight or vision but when they are facilitated with the right training and tools, they develop a good literacy ability. Teaching Material for Visual impaired Learners: Using appropriate teaching-learning materials is vital for children with visual impairment. Some of the common teaching-learning materials available in the market for educating children with visual impairment: ?Braille language training: Braille printed books, which have both braille and printed text on each page so that sighted students and adults can read along with students who have visual impairments.Tactile material (globe): These globes have convex and concave features on the surface denoting coastlines and country borders which will useful for visually impaired students.Audio cassettes can also be used for teaching purposes. The audio materials should also have audio so that those without sight can understand their learning effectively.Screen reading software: Screen readers are software programs that allow blind or visually impaired users to read the text that is displayed on the computer screen with a speech synthesizer or braille display.So we conclude that braille language training, text-to-speech converting software, and tactile printed material are useful learning materials for the students who are visually challenged.HintSign language training: Any of various formal languages employing a system of hand gestures and their placement relative to the upper body, facial expressions, body postures, and finger spelling, especially for communication by and with deaf peopleAdditional Information Ideas that can help in the learning of visual impairment- Use textbooks with big letters, so that they can read them easily.Make optimum distance which is required to see clearly.The use of dark material for learning can help them,They should be seated in the first row of the classroom.They should have provided verbal cues to help the students to think divergently about the problem.
