nemeth modified signs of comparison

[Rodney Connors]

Please see attached. This is from a grade 2 math book done in Nemeth.
I’m wondering if the arrows with the math above them should be treated as modified signs of comparison following the five-step rule.
I couldn’t find example in the code book of arrows modified in this way.
Thank you!

Hi Rodney.

I would not use this method for a second grade reader. I would borrow the method used for labeled chemistry arrows shown in Section 3.1.2.a of that code book. It's more graphic and follows print layout so a sighted helper is more likely to understand the braille.

See the attached brf file which illustrates this nice layout. Be sure to insert a blank line before *and after these constructions.

I also suggest using the general omission symbol for the omissions above the arrows. You can explain this layout and the substitution in the teacher notes that accompany your transcription.
