What should anyone need to know about our sensory systems? Because if we did not use them appropriately, it causes developmental delay which can impact every day living activities, academic learning and pro-social-emotional behaviour. In truth, we cannot function adequately each day if our sensory systems are not giving us the right messages at the right time. This workshop will introduce therapists, educators, carers, and others to the most pertinent pieces of information necessary to inform intervention and accommodating for individual needs. It will also provide each workshop participant with a sensory profile checklist that will support analysis of a sensory profile to aid intervention planning. The functional impact on toileting and feeding behaviour will be discussed with practical idea to support intervention. The workshop participant will leave the workshop with practical information that can guide the journey of learning forward as well better enable assessment and intervention regards sensory implications. It is a “must-have” type of workshop for anyone working with children and their families!
