Tactile project

Shape Matching Icons

Match the laminated shape icons to the image and word on the laminated sheet. Matte texture, fine motor practice, and bright colors. This case study shows how Material Prep translates a teacher, TVI, O&M specialist, or parent request into a usable access material: clear enough for the student to use, durable enough for repeated classroom sessions, and practical enough for busy teams to adopt without rebuilding the activity from scratch.

Access problem

The access problem

The original concept needed shape recognition, image matching, word exposure, and handling practice in one compact activity.

Material strategy

Material strategy

Material Prep organized the task into a durable matching board with removable icons, bright visual fields, and tactile handling points.

Student use

What the student can do

The student can match shape icons to the picture and word field, practice fine motor placement, and connect shape, label, and image in one organized task.

Classroom value

Why this matters

Material Prep saves educator time by consolidating worksheets, cards, and prompts into one durable classroom-ready activity, improves consistency across sessions, and creates an accessible tool that is hard to build from scratch while managing a full caseload.
