Summary/Abstract: Learning affects all traits of a person and causes relatively lasting changes in their personality. In elementary schools, among other things, knowing the basics of the Solar System is part of the compulsory education. However, when it comes to visually impaired students, teachers encounter some obstacles in explaining this topic. Therefore, the basic requirement in solving this problem is to adapt the methods and means to their specific sensing. The project “Let’s Dive into Space” is an idea for teachers that aims to help, first of all, blind and highly visually impaired students in mastering very abstract material for them. We wanted to provide, through a multidimensional approach, the best possible knowledge, understanding and creation of the image of space, while respecting the specific learning of children with visual impairments, their attention, perception and memory. In the development of a didactic model of the Solar System were used: natural materials, objects, models, drawings, written and audio recordings, as well as various teaching methods.
