| THINK:
What are the signs of attachment or lack of attachment in
your student? Try hand over hand assistance with your
child or student and notice if you get resistance. Then try
hand under hand, did you get the same resistance?
EXPERIMENT
to find out which type of sensory experience is a positive
for your child or student in each of the following categories:
- touch:
light, firm, how, when, etc.
- movement:
swinging, spinning, rocking, slow, fast, variable, how much,
etc.
- positions:
What positions help the student be more alert? Relax? How
much support is required? How much does the student have
to work when he or she is supporting himself or herself
in space? Does he or she have any energy left for learning?
- vision:
How much vision? Does it help to hold objects in certain
visual fields? Does adding color, simplifying, high contrast,
lighting help?
- hearing:
What sounds can the student hear? How loud, soft, near or
far away must they be? Music?
