Be The Exception In Special Education

187.Sensory Room Ideas & How to Get Started on a Budget


Listen Later

So what is a sensory room anyway? It is a space that allows students with sensory needs to receive an immersive sensory experience. The space does not have to be an entire room, a corner is better than nothing. It is also not limited to a special education classroom, but rather can serve a purpose in a general education classroom as well.

This week I am sharing ideas of what to put in a sensory space and how to get one started on a budget. You will come away with practical ideas of where to start so that your students' needs are completely met.

In this episode you will learn:

  • The benefits of having a sensory space.

  • How to adapt a corner of your classroom to meet these needs of your students.

  • How to use grants to get the items you need for your sensory space.

  • About different resources you can put in your sensory space.
