Much of Science involves students learning to describe, discuss and illustrate their observations of the natural world. The language for Science focuses on descriptive discourse. Using consistent descriptive language, such as salient features, as a part of CVI intervention supports all students communicating what they observe.

Information for Science in elementary school is presented through pictures and texts. To provide practice accessing conventional literacy for students with CVI, books are on the computers adapted using Power Point, Glow Writing and simplified photos.
