Frequently Bought Together

Transform the reading experience and reduce visual stress with our Guided Reading Strips. These transparent, coloured overlays are a simple yet highly effective piece of low cost assistive technology designed to help individuals with Dyslexia, Irlen Syndrome, and ADHD focus on text and improve reading fluency. Available in standard sentence strips, large paragraph overlays, or a comprehensive combo pack to suit every reading level.

How This Tool Supports NDIS Participants

Visual tracking issues and "visual stress" (where text appears to move, blur, or wash out) are significant barriers to literacy. These strips directly support NDIS goals by:

  • Reducing Visual Stress: The tinted overlay reduces the harsh contrast between black text and white paper, which can alleviate eye strain and headaches associated with Irlen Syndrome.

  • Improving Focus & Tracking: The opaque guide line (on the small strips) or large tinted area isolates specific lines of text. This helps users "track" the line they are reading without skipping ahead or losing their place, a common challenge in Dyslexia.

  • Building Literacy Capacity: By making the physical act of reading more comfortable, these tools encourage longer reading sessions and support skill development in literacy and education.

Choose Your Perfect Set

We offer three variation options to suit different reading materials and needs:

  • Standard Sentence Strips (Set of 8): Ideal for beginners or those who need to isolate a single line of text. Great for standard books and worksheets.

  • Large Paragraph Overlays (Set of 8): Designed for reading larger blocks of text, textbooks, or wider pages. Allows the user to view a full paragraph while still applying the colour tint.

  • The Complete Combo Pack (16 Pieces): The ultimate toolkit. Includes 8 x Standard Strips AND 8 x Large Overlays. This is the best choice for NDIS participants, providing versatile support for everything from novels to A4 workbooks.

Key Features

  • Visual Stress Relief: Softens the glare of white paper to reduce fatigue.

  • Assorted Colours: Each pack includes a variety of colours (e.g., blue, yellow, pink, green) allowing the user to experiment and find the specific tint that works best for their visual processing.

  • Dual Function: Works as both a reading tracker and a bookmark.

  • Durable & Safe: Made from flexible, durable PVC material that is water-resistant and easy to clean.

These Guided Reading Strips are a practical literacy aid designed to assist NDIS participants in achieving goals related to learning, education, and independent reading. They are classified as Low Cost Assistive Technology - a simple tool that modifies visual input to support reading mechanics.

How This Item Can Support NDIS Goals

These reading aids directly support NDIS goals related to capacity building and literacy by:

Reducing Visual Stress & Fatigue: For participants with Irlen Syndrome or visual processing disorders, high-contrast text can cause distortion and headaches. These tinted overlays mitigate glare, allowing for longer, more comfortable reading sessions supporting educational goals.

Enhancing Visual Tracking: For participants with Dyslexia or ADHD, losing place on a page is a frequent barrier. The guided window isolates text, reducing visual noise and helping the user maintain their place, fostering independence in reading and learning.

Meeting 'Reasonable & Necessary' Criteria

These strips align with the NDIS 'Reasonable and Necessary' criteria by being a highly cost-effective support that directly addresses functional limitations in visual processing and literacy.

It represents excellent value for money (especially the Combo Pack) by providing a durable, reusable solution for visual stress. As a piece of low cost assistive technology, it is a practical investment in a participant's capacity to engage with written materials.
