Teacher Checklist Online

Classroom Observation Checklist

Many kinds of vision problems reveal themselves most easily in behavior, posture and attitude. These signs are usually associated most closely with long periods of near visual work. You can easily identify vision problems simply by observing your student and marking this checklist. If your student scores high on this checklist, there is good reason to suspect a vision problem is the cause of poor performance in the classroom.
