This is a narrative study related to that debate. The main objective of this study is to find out the suitable teaching- learning activities for visually impaired from the perception of such children and their teacher. The participant of this study was a visually impaired person who was selected using purposive sampling procedure. He had the study experience in a separate classroom and common classrooms both. He studied first two Grades in separate classrooms for visually impaired and Grade three to bachelor's level in common classrooms. After completing a bachelor's level in English, he has worked as a teacher for visually impaired children for four years and for all types of children for three years. This study is conducted in Panchthar district of eastern Nepal. One in- depth interview following by a series of short telephone interviews and observation were used as data collection techniques. It is concluded that special needs children should be taught in a separate classroom for learning of basic skills of reading and writing and then they must be taught in an inclusive classroom with other students for greater learning achievements.
