Figure-ground Discrimination

What is figure-ground discrimination? Let's say you see a picture of a crowded street with cars, buses, and people. You are asked to spot a little cat in this picture. Your eyes scan and then separate the cat out from its busy background picture. This is called Figure-Ground Discrimination - the ability to differentiate an object from its background. It prepares kids to read, write, and solve puzzles. It then builds up to more important skills like completing tasks, following instructions, and staying focused. In this month's box, we work on this important visual processing skill!
