Using focusing tools to direct attention

• If a student is distracted by many items on a
  page, use a focusing tool
• Use highlighting tape to draw attention to
  important vocabulary.
• A business envelope with a cellophane
  window can be cut open. Use the cellophane
  window to draw attention to desired text.
• Make a focusing line. Cut tag board
  to the desired length. Hard laminate.
• Make a focusing viewer. Cut a
  rectangular piece of card stock, smaller than the
  book. Then cut a narrow window near the top.
  Fill in the window with lamination taped to the
  back or leave it empty.
• Make an adjustable focus frame. Use 2
  L shaped pieces of heavy stock. Slice 2 straight
  openings down the middle of one L leaving a
  border at each end. Sliding the second L through
  the slits will contract and expand the frame.
  Char Forsten, an educator and lecturer, suggested
  this.
• Make a magnetic viewer. Cut tag board
  double the size of the page or opening to be
  spotlighted. Crease this strip in half. Open it
  up. Using a utility knife cut holes out of each
  side. Hard laminate using 2 separate pieces, so
  it will fold over. Hot glue magnetic tape to the
  inside edges of the 2 open ends.

36
Access

• Page Fluffers Use any light weight object
  that can be picked up easily, (foam, styrofoam
  peanuts, tongue depressors, dixie cup spoons,
  pieces of cardboard etc.). Hot glue these to
  paperclips. Slide the paper clip over the
  outside edge of the page. The page fluffer will
  protrude and help the student turn just one page
  at a time.
• Pliability Add cardboard or hard lamination to
  pages to make more sturdy or use flimsy materials
  to make pages easier to grab.

37
