Gwyn McCormack from Positive Eye has generously submitted a series of ‘Top Ideas’, which we will be sharing each month. You can read her introduction to the series and other posts here.

This specific series is centred around the importance of concept development when teaching children who have a vision impairment. The ‘Top Ideas’ can be utilised by your child’s educational setting or by a parent wanting to give a little extra help with learning from home.

Add a place mat with Velcro spots to create an activity base

Make a number counting game based on a favourite story book character – Olaf’s snowball counting game

Make a facial expressions game and add matching audio pegs to match to the facial expression
