Study Notes
Early Childhood and Vision
- Multisensory Learning: Engaging multiple senses, like touch and movement, can benefit children struggling with shape, letter, and number recognition.
- Body-in-Space Activities: Games like Statue or Simon Says help develop spatial perception and understanding of body movement.
- Shared Reading: Focusing on print concepts during shared book reading increases visual attention to text.
Elementary School and Vision
- Reducing Visual Distractions: Controlling glare, using appropriate lighting, and providing visual tools like carrels can improve focus.
- Color-Coding: While color-coding may be helpful, it can pose challenges for individuals with color vision issues.
- Visual Attention Strategies: Using headphones, good lighting, and pastel colored paper can enhance visual focus.
- Visual Search Skills: Engaging in activities like "Where's Waldo?" books improves visual search abilities.
- Cueing Techniques: Pointing and underlining important information helps maintain focus during tasks.
Visual Memory
- Chunking: Break large amounts of information into smaller, more manageable units.
- Maintenance Rehearsal: Repeatedly review information to keep it in short-term memory.
- Elaborative Rehearsal: Connect new information to existing knowledge in long-term memory.
- Mnemonic Devices: Songs, acronyms, and other language-based cues help recall information.
- Visualization: Use strong visual images and features to improve encoding and retrieval.
- Games and Activities: Memory games and sequences strengthen visual memory.
- Gradually Increasing Task Complexity: Build memory skills by progressively introducing more challenging tasks.
- External Aids: Notebooks, labels, and visual aids support memory.
- Task Arrangement: Organize tasks to minimize memory strain.
Visual Discrimination
- Worksheet Organization: Therapists assist teachers in organizing worksheets, color-coding, and reducing clutter to improve visual attention.
- Color Contrast: Using contrasting colors, cleaning chalkboards, reducing print density, and utilizing graph paper are helpful interventions.
- Masking: Highlighting key elements by masking portions of worksheets helps focus and identification.
