What is the Role of Schools in Sensory Integration?
Schools can significantly influence a child's sensory integration development by providing a supportive environment. Teachers and school staff can: - Implement sensory breaks: Short breaks that allow children to engage in sensory activities can help them stay focused and calm. - Modify the classroom setting: Adjusting seating arrangements, reducing clutter, and providing sensory tools can enhance a child's learning experience. - Collaborate with therapists: Working closely with occupational therapists can ensure that the child's sensory needs are met within the school setting.
