# Exact text and tactile alternatives for eight original A4 aids

These are invented sources, not observations of living things, materials or a child's data. Use broad physical stand-ins as actual objects, raised large outlines and labels for pictures, and agreed printed/raised symbols. A screen picture is not an object form. A neutral adult reads and moves only as the child directs. NOT SHOWN or NOT TESTED means unavailable outcome from that source. Public check alternatives state the source but not its solved groups.

## A · Invented badge source

**File:** badge-source.svg / badge-source.pdf.
**Exact content:** Five original pictorial badges: 1 circle solid CS, 2 triangle dashed TD, 3 circle dashed CD, 4 triangle solid TS, 5 circle border not shown C?.
