Reading in Focus: A Vision Series - Eye Spy… a Struggling Reader
Description
In this episode, Dr. Gina Pepin invites teachers to become reading detectives as we explore the mysteries behind students whose eyes seem to have a mind of their own. From skipped lines to jumbled letters, these signs often point to visual processing and tracking challenges—not laziness.
Learn how to observe, gather clues, and implement tiered, multisensory supports that help students connect what they see, say, and do. Discover practical classroom strategies, from finger guides and tactile word walls to movement-based reading activities, and understand when to collaborate with specialists.
Whether you’re tackling subtle eye-tracking issues or more complex visual challenges, this episode will give you the tools and insights to turn tricky “Eye Spy” missions into reading successes—helping every student feel seen, supported, and capable.
