Jam-packed with creative theme-based group lessons, this resource follows a sensory integrated developmental sequence consisting of seven activities related to the theme. For maximum flexibility, suggestions for adaptation and modification for individual students are included, along with instructions for how to develop additional lessons. The companion DVD, Learn to Move, Move to Learn: Dinosaurs, gives a first-hand view of real children engaged in a dinosaur theme-based sensorimotor lesson and thus sparks ideas for other similar activities.

Awesome ideas!,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Learn to Move, Move to Learn: Sensorimotor Early Childhood Activity Themes (Paperback)
This book is a must-have for anyone working with pediatric special populations. It addresses many sensory-motor challenges these children face. The book is cleverly and easily categorized by themes--including holidays, methods of transportation, animals, and any events that kids find fascinating.
Suggestions for songs, gross motor, and fine motor activities are so helpful. The materials needed are often typical equipment found in the schools, or that can be purchased inexpensively. Whether you're a teacher, aide, OT, PT, or a super parent, I highly recommend this book!

This review is from: Learn to Move, Move to Learn: Sensorimotor Early Childhood Activity Themes (Paperback)
This book is jam packed with ideas for implementing a sensory enriched program for young children. It addresses the needs of children with sensory integration issues in such a way that the newest teacher or parent could easily understand. In my busy classroom I will be creating many new activities found in the themes section of the book. Thank you. This is just what I have been looking for!!

I teach preschool and loved this book. My son's OT recommended it and now I use it all the time. It is a perfect book for helping young kids develop upper body strength.
