Finally, it’s time to talk about specific assistive technology tools and supports.

‼️ Remember, as you consider tools and supports you’ll want to make sure you consider the features of these tools. First the team should simply create a brainstormed list of the tools you think might work before narrowing it down.

📗 Many children with motor challenges have difficulty turning pages. “Page Fluffers” give added depth and weight, which makes it easier to grasp and turn the page, thereby allowing students to be more independent in reading and literacy activities. 

📕 They can be attached using glue, tape, adhesive-backed materials, clips, or anything that will hold it in place.

📘 They can be permanent or removable. 

📙 Individuals with more significant physical impairment will usually need bigger or thicker page fluffers. 

📚 There is no single way to make page fluffers, but here are some ideas:

✨ Use Velcro squares, picture frame dots or other adhesive-backed materials.
✨ Attach tongue depressors
✨ Glue any type of foam, a sponge square, pompoms or felt 
✨ Use paper clips, binder clips, clothespins, etc.
✨ Beads of puff paint

🗣️ Have you used page fluffers before? Tell us in the comments!
