A Special Needs Sensory Movement Conference
"THE OUT-OF-SYNC CHILD"
Carol Kranowitz offers sensory strategies and activities that are applauded not only in the United States but around the world; over 500,000 copies of her book The Out-of-Sync Child have been sold. Ms. Kranowitz holds an M.A. in Education and Human Development and until recently was a music and drama teacher. She has developed a purposeful curriculum that integrates sensory-motor activities into the school day.
By attending, participants can:
Identify and describe the six types of SPD and how they can affect the daily lives of children
Recognize co-existing problems (e.g., visual, auditory, eating, sleeping, and emotional difficulties)
Discuss several research studies by the world's top investigators
Demonstrate "In-Sync" activities, specifically designed to engage various sensory systems and thereby improve learning and regulate behavior
And more!
