Sensory rooms at school help teach children with autism and other behavioral health challenges to regulate their bodies in a way that allows them to attain success in the classroom. For example, using a sensory break can help students to achieve a calming sensory effect. Improved focus and information processing can make a significant impact on their ability not only to learn but in how they engage with their teachers and peers. And, for children who are non-verbal and also struggling with behavioral challenges, being able to use their speech device or sign that they need access to this form of stimulation is a vital step toward learning to advocate for themselves in the classroom. The goal of this space is to help students achieve calm through the use of heavy-work, proprioceptive, tactile and vestibular input. This room allows students to explore sensory materials and use different equipment to help regulate their bodies and return to a “ready to learn” state. This room is a sensory-rich environment monitored by staff. These sensory opportunities give the students a short break to self-regulate and return to their primary academic environment.
