✍️ Handwriting is not outdated — it’s neuroscience in action.

✴️ Writing by hand is a full-body brain workout. It activates thinking, sensing, moving, and remembering — all at once. Each stroke engages fine motor control, sensory awareness, focused attention, and memory.

Typing is faster, but handwriting builds deeper neural connections and makes learning more lasting. It slows you down — in the best possible way — so your brain can truly absorb, not just record.

✳️ The Power of Handwriting: Improved Reading, Thinking, Memory and Learning (Writing by hand engages multiple senses at once and strengthens cognitive abilities.)

Today we had a young lady come to the clinic who has been battling with headaches and migraines for most of her life.
She had tried every treatment possible including some that are quite invasive and cause a different type of discomfort.
During the assessment it was found she was very light sensitive, always wore sunglasses, even on cloudy days and in the rain. Computer screens felt too bright and hurt her eyes as well as being a major cause of her headaches.
The assessment involved her looking through a number of specifically tinted lenses to be worn as glasses.
She settled on a combination tint of pink and a little purple, and her headache calmed almost immediately.

If you are dealing with constant unexplained headaches give Irlen Diagnostic Clinic a call or send a message to see if Irlen lenses can help you!

Did you know that Occupational Therapists have been utilizing The Test of Visual Perceptual Skills since 1969?

Visual Discrimination: The ability to discriminate the dominant features of different objects, for example, the ability to discriminate position, shapes, forms,colors and letter-like forms.

Visual Memory: The ability to recognize one item or a sequence of items after a very brief interval based on visual input alone (no verbal/auditory help).

Spatial Relationships: The ability to orient one’s body in space and to perceive the positions of objects in relation to oneself and to other objects. An example of this would be the perception of pictures, figures, or patterns that are reversals or figural rotations.

Visual Form Constancy: The ability to recognize an object, although it may belarger, smaller, or rotated.

Figure-Ground: The ability to distinguish an object from the background (or surrounding) objects.

Visual Closure: The ability to perceive a whole figure when only fragments or parts are presented.These abilities are essential for quick and accurate identification and discrimination ofobjects, for comparing similarities and differences, recognizing and generalizing forms, and coming to valid conclusions based on the accurate analysis of available visual information.

Sir Richard Taylor: The co-founder of Wētā Workshop, a company known for its work in creating special effects for movies like "The Lord of the Rings” and “The Hobbit “is dyslexic. He has stated, "I had to find something that I could do because I couldn't read and write to save myself. But the things that I really wanted to learn, I'd have to learn by doing."

Awesome idea!

Playing name games at the start of the year is a great way to learn names along with their spelling and pronunciation. 🙌

💡 Try our Name Game Ring Toss!
Prep: For each student, write the letters of their name on the bottoms of plastic cups as shown in the photo. Cut the centers out of paper plates to create “rings.”

How to play:
- Give each student their own name cups and a paper plate ring. Ask them to set up the cups a few feet away from them, and practice throwing the ring around each letter.
- Then, ask students to trade places with a neighbor, and try to throw their rings around that student’s name cups.
- Continue the game as long as you like, helping kids get to know each other’s names (and how to spell them!).
