Sensory spaces invite learners to be curious and try new ideas and skills, inspiring imaginative play, creativity and storytelling. This comprehensive A-Z shows readers how to create easily customisable spaces for learning, sensory engagement and relaxation, using a host of everyday items. It is packed full of:
- tools and strategies to provide positive experiences and the best outcomes for an inclusive education;
- ideas for connecting learners to different areas of the curriculum;
- sensory-rich activities to support the mental health and wellbeing of people with complex and additional needs; and
- case studies and examples from guest contributors to showcase a wide range of sensory spaces in practice.
With a rich selection of colour photographs, this essential guide will inspire you to create spaces for learners to take ownership of their sensory explorations in creative, immersive and stimulating environments. It is a valuable resource for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and mainstream teachers, SEND coordinators, teaching assistants, early years practitioners, play therapists, parents and carers, and anyone with an interest in engaging learners through the senses.
