Identifying & Supporting Children with Sensory Processing Difficulties: Evidence-based strategies & activities for learning and play to help develop effective support and meet sensory processing needs. by Tina Rae
Evidence-based resources to help develop effective support and meet sensory processing needs. Many children struggle to manage their sensory world both at school and socially. Those with ASD, ADHD, Foetal Alcohol Syndrome and other emotional and behavioural issues can display a range of behaviours emanating from complex underlying needs. Ideal for use in schools and by other professionals working with younger children, this practical toolkit shows how to identify and support children with sensory processing and integration difficulties. Also contains a PowerPoint presentation for use with parents/carers and professionals. The Assessment ensures that correct areas can be targeted by the 60 colour illustrated activities divided into Visual (sight); Tactile (touch); Taste (Gustatory); Smell (Olfactory); Vestibular (balance) and Proprioception (Body awareness) Contents: Definitions; How to help; PowerPoint training programme; Activities: Checklists and Handouts
