Here’s what our field testers had to say about the Tactile Demonstration Thermometer:
Coolness factor—the blind/low vision student has the “cool” item that others want to touch/explore.
[Student] liked comparing the Celsius and Fahrenheit and trying to estimate the value when between the units of measure. Loved the ribbon and being able to adjust the temperature himself.
The student loved that it was interactive, and they were able to adjust the temperature. It is well made and sturdy.
