Effectively Using Play as an Intervention
Research reveals that 1 in 6 children have sensory processing disorder (SPD). Current evidence in sensory processing points to a neurological basis for this disorder. This epidemic of SPD in the pediatric population creates challenges for therapists, medical professionals, and educators in providing effective intervention and support for children and their families. Professionals need adequate training on the neuroscience foundations of SPD in order to understand why sensory driven behavior occurs and how to effectively address this disorder.
Join Jenny L. Clark, OTR/L, BCP, who has served in making children's lives better for over 20 years. This exciting and informative seminar is filled with creative and useful sensorimotor interventions that can be easily implemented in the classroom, clinic, or at home. Participants will glean information about how to implement creative curriculum for early intervention, preschool, and elementary school children. Attendees will discover how to design sensorimotor theme-based lesson plans that can be implemented immediately. Ms. Clark's unique play-based treatment approach for children incorporates sensorimotor theme activities that facilitate development to enhance learning. Participants' learning will be enriched through video examples, case studies, and current research to support therapeutic interventions.
