Comment “EYE” for eye strengthening activities to help a child with tracking to support their reading and writing skills if they are underdeveloped.
If you notice your child or student struggling to read, or if reading is often laborious, their visual system and eye tracking ability may be delayed or hasn’t fully matured.
Kids with visual processing and tracking delays often:
👀Skip words, sentences or paragraphs on the page
👀Don’t know what they’ve read
👀Blink frequently or close their eyes to refocus
👀Tire of reading easily and daydream
…additional signs of reading and visual system delays are broken down into pieces. Some kids may have strong visual skills in one area, but may break down in other visual areas.
****Remember, kids can still have 20/20 vision and fall behind in their visual motor and visual processing skills. Don’t discount reading and tracking delays if they have great vision when they visit the optometrist.
To do a few simple eye tracking tests with your child or students, and to grab some helpful strengthening exercises, comment “EYE” and we’ll send you the link.
