This tabletop activity invites sighted participants to enjoy a multi-sensory experience through exploring thermoform tactile art representations of the Sun’s corona with their hands without seeing them with their eyes. Field testing is ongoing to develop activities for Blind and Low Vision learners that use these same thermoform tactiles. Includes a Facilitator Guide and other necessary materials for implementation.
