Created by a certified occupational therapy assistant, the 29-page PDF packet will be delivered electronically immediately following payment.
HOW TO USE THE FALL VISUAL MEMORY PACKET
Directions: Show your students the desired page/or number of cards for 20 seconds to one minute. Have them memorize the objects then tell you what they remember or record their answers on one of the worksheets provided. Help them with strategies such as labeling the pictures they see in their mind or think about taking a “mental picture” of what they see.
WHAT IS INCLUDED?
The Fall Visual Memory Packet includes 24 images. The worksheets are differentiated for students of varying abilities:
- Pages are included with 6, 10, and 20 images to remember.
- Worksheets with and without the images and words are included for students to record their answers.
Color and BW options are available. Consider laminating the color pages for multiple uses.
Individual pictures are also included and can be used as a matching game or you can choose how many images to show your students. Copy, cut out and laminate the pictures to use multiple times.
WHEN IS A GOOD TIME TO USE THE FALL VISUAL MEMORY PACKET?
The activities can be used for handwriting practice or students can give their answers verbally. You can also show students the page on an interactive whiteboard or device and have them record their answers. Use these activities with students individually or with an entire classroom. They can also be used in special education, speech or occupational therapy groups.
OT Tip: Building a student’s visual memory will help them recognize numbers, letters, and sight words. It will also help them copy information from a board, keyboard from memory or record information without having to keep checking back to the sample.
