Some of my students are overwhelmed by stimuli that others view as innocuous. Others have trouble focusing or staying alert when they don’t have the right kind of proprioceptive or tactile input. They may distract classmates because they’re constantly moving: seeking stimuli that provide them with sensory experience or input about where their body is in space. Over- and under-stimulation can both lead to repetitive behaviors like rocking; these may become social impediments. In short, sensory issues can create both learning and behavioral issues, and teachers often need to provide modifications for children who are over- or under-responding to stimuli in any of their sensory systems. Busy Boxes provide students with sensory-stimulating items at their fingertips that not only provide the needed input for students to progress through the day as their same age-peers, but they also teach self-regulation skills and modify behaviors discreetly.
