Hi. I’ve been given a first grade reading textbook to transcribe. I understand the basic format, line spacing and size, but I’m not sure whether to use grade one or grade two braille. Is grade two standard even for young readers?
It is assumed that braille is contracted. It is the responsibility of the agency to specify otherwise. See Formats 2.3.8b Customized braille. The decision to use uncontracted braille comes about only as an agency requirement.
