My Project

We are working on using a fun multi-sensory approach to improving my students sensory awareness and want to provide calming experiences using sensory tools with my students. These are the skills necessary for my students to help release tension, become aware of their body and feel more regulated and ready to learn in the classroom.

My students all have multiple challenges including Autism and Learning Disabilities.

But I do not want these things to hold them back. While they struggle with focus, attention and learning, I work hard to make everything we do fun and engaging. Play is the work of children and through play, my students can learn anything.

I am asking for tools to help my students learn their own bodily needs and help them regulate during occupational therapy so that they can be ready to learn in the classroom.
