Sensory Diet Stations
Sensory Diet Stations provides an organized
approach to receiving sensory input on a daily basis. Most students participate
in the Sensory Diet Stations 1-2 times per school day. It
helps the student become more independent and responsible for
meeting their own sensory needs in a school setting.
The
Preschool Edition consists of six Sensory
Diet Stations. The
student, along with their teacher, aide or OT, performs a pre-determined
set of repetitions of each station exercise. The number
of repetitions should be determined by your OT depending on
the sensory needs of each individual student.
The
School Age Edition is targeted for
kindergarten through grade 4. This edition consists
of 12 Sensory Diet Stations. Once
the OT has determined repetitions required, and the student
is instructed, many of the students can be completely independent
accessing the Sensory Diet Stations on a daily basis.
Each Sensory Diet Stations packet comes with
instructions and advice for implementing the program, a description
of the sensory input provided by each station, as well as suggestions
to individualize it by using pictures of your own students
or teachers.
