| Summary: | With current budget cuts and worries about the financial future, this seminar recording presents a practical approach towards addressing sensory needs in tight spaces with tight budgets. Finding sensory outlets that work without compromising services for individuals is the ultimate goal. This session will include specific ideas that use common, low cost materials in innovative ways. Examples of sensory applications will be given including simple sensory areas and materials that can be set up for "sensory on the go." The combination of relatively inexpensive materials paired with great ideas, intentions, and interaction can lead to wonderful outcomes. The speaker will give ideas for designing simple sensory routines and areas with respect to materials needed, safety, comfort, and cost. The value of positive sensory interaction in school, home, and community settings often stretches beyond the initial cost of materials. Examples of positive "best practices" in the use of resources and training will be given as well as suggestions for finding funding supports. |
