A creative and practice-focused workshop exploring how everyday school spaces can be used more intentionally to support sensory and praxis development.
Find sensory and praxis opportunities across the ordinary spaces of the school day.
This workshop focuses on spotting and using natural sensory and praxis opportunities across everyday school spaces. Rather than assuming meaningful intervention only happens in a therapy room, it helps participants think about how movement, routines, transitions, environmental affordances, and social contexts across the school day can either support or block participation.
Learning outcomes:
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- identify sensory and praxis opportunities across common school environments
- discuss how different spaces may support or challenge participation
- suggest ways to use ordinary school routines more intentionally
- reflect on how these ideas could be adapted in their own setting
- select one school-based activity or routine that could be used more purposefully
Participants will learn it through school-based examples, discuss it in practice-matched groups, apply it to familiar spaces and routines, reflect on missed opportunities in their own setting, and take it back into practice through more intentional use of everyday environments.
