We really enjoy spending time together in the Sensory Integration Room and whilst we’re having fun we are also working on/developing so many different aspects.

Movement is so important and in this space, the children can explore a range of movements at their own pace. There is spinning, swinging, climbing and bouncing. It is also a wonderful opportunity to develop close relationships with each other and with the adults too. There is always lots of Intensive Interaction taking place where the adults work very closely with individual children. Of course it is also a fantastic way to develop our communication skills using speech, symbols, signing – Makaton, and the children’s own VOCA’s (Voice Output Communication Aids) During our sessions we are able to work on the children’s PLP’s (Personalised Learning Plans) in an exciting and highly motivating way. This is one of our favourite spaces and its wonderful to see the children making lovely progress.

Jess and the Team.
