Iceland: Positive Looking Everyday by Everyone Toolkit

Here are 321 ideas for the Positive Looking Everyday by Everyone Toolkit collected over a 30 minute period by 65 professionals attending the 1st International See it, Find it, Use it Positive Looking Conference in Iceland on October 27th and 28th 2023.

We opened a new chapter and a new way of thinking about children with CVI. The camaraderie of spirit and connections in the room by the end of the two days was electric!

Please share this gold dust opportunity to increase the gold dust potential for visual skills to be incorporated across the whole day. I wear my glasses all day and I can see. I want children with VI/CVI/MDVI to have access to learning all day everyday by everyone. We can all do all these things, they are easy, simple, possible and doable by everyone and do not rely on being a specialist to implement.

Here are the instructions to make your toolkit

Please note if I was in the classroom I would stand against a black background. I am not doing in these clips due to the exposure on the webcam when you wear black and stand in front of black, the quality disintegrates.
