Ellen Mazel and Marguerite Tibaudo Recognition and Compensatory Strategies.

Individualize:
Use familiar, recognizable objects to encourage tactile and visual exploration.
Replace images with a photo of a familiar, recognizable object.
Identify preferences for image type, orientations, background complexity, number of items on a page, and compensatory strategies.
Print multiples for matching & sorting activities.
Concept Development
Identification and labeling: What is this image? What do you see?
Recognition: Where is the _____? Find the ____. Show me the ____. Point to the ____.

Color recognition: color pop-out, color coding, color highlighting.
Global form and size cues.
Predictability: memory of routines, prior knowledge, and context cues.

Complexity:

Images: salient features, preferred colors, multiple colors, orientations, partial images
Array: Adjust to your child’s tolerance level. 1 image, 2 images, 3 images, 4 images, 8 images, 10 images
Complexity of a scene- How much clutter and crowding can your child tolerate?

Matching: How many ____ are there? Show me one like this.

Match Object to Image
Match Image to Image
Match Image to Partial Image
Memory Matching Game with Images.
