What is Visual Perception?
Visual Perception is the ability to interpret, analyse and give meaning to what is seen. This is of the utmost importance when establishing the building blocks for learning. Your child is constantly learning through visual opportunities which present themselves in everyday life at home, at school, in social interaction and in play. Up to 80% of what they learn is through visual opportunities.
Most children will successfully be able to develop the ability to recognise, recall and make sense of what they see but a breakdown in this process can hinder your child's ability to learn. Children with learning disabilities generally have average or above average intelligence, but a contrasting gap between ability and performance is created if their visual perceptual skills are lacking in any given area. The process of taking in one's environment is referred to as "perception." If this perception is incorrect or altered in any way, a child will present with reading, spelling, handwriting, maths and comprehension problems.
Visual perception may be connected to physical eye issues but even with 20/20 vision, your child can still struggle to organise visual information and develop the visual perceptual skills necessary to establish a strong foundation for learning.
An immaturity in any of the visual perceptual areas can improve as the brain matures a great deal from early childhood into adulthood. Our worksheets are a unique tool that can help to stimulate this process of eye to brain to action, and encourage children to correctly assimilate visual perceptual skills within their schoolwork.
Give vision to your child's future. Fill out our Online Checklist to help you identify whether your child has difficulties with visual perception.
About the Worksheets
We have devised a total of 2000 worksheets to support children from ages 4 to 18. The worksheets have been divided into 3 levels from easy to more challenging.
The worksheets are available on CD Rom or as a Bulk Download file that will be emailed to you within 24 hours.
They are broken up into 10 Visual Perceptual Areas or sub skills. These are:
- Form Constancy
- Figure Ground
- Position in Space
- Spatial Relationships
- Visual Discrimination
- Visual Closure
- Visual Analysis and Synthesis
- Visual Memory
- Visual Sequential Memory
- Visual Motor Integration
Problems in any of these ten areas can be identified by a professional trained in administering standardised visual perceptual tests. Alternatively if you are a parent or teacher, you can use our Online Checklist as a guide to help pin point the visual perceptual areas that require attention.
Visual Learning For Life's worksheets are designed to stimulate the development of visual perceptual skills and encourage children to assimilate these skills within their schoolwork. This tool acts as a gateway to unlock common learning disabilities and is specially designed to help the integration process from one's eyes to one's brain to action.
