I’m brailling a third grade math book in UEB math. My first one. When should you space around the signs of operation, omissions, and composition signs within an equation?

Thanks,

Susie

Hi Susie,

The UEB Guidelines for Technical Material give quite a bit of leeway on this issue. See GTM 1.1.2. However, most mathematical material is transcribed with unspaced signs of operation and spaced signs of comparison, even at third grade. We strongly recommend this, spacing around signs of operation only when specifically asked to do so.

All the best on your venture,
Julie
