I don't know what they're called, but I am looking for one of this coloured, but clear, plastic thingies that you can put over the sheet of paper to make it easier to read. Anyone know where I could look for one of these?

Those look like magnifiers. Do you mean like for Irlen's Syndrome?

Usually large stationary and office supply stores like Staples has them. Bookstores also have them sometimes.

Thanks for the responses.

Yes, that is precisely what I was looking for!

I will check into the stationary stores first before looking online as it will just be easier. Thanks again everyone!
