Every teacher knows the students who constantly balance on their chairs or prefer to hide under their hoods. These students use various ways to stay focused, as they are hypo- or hypersensitive to sensory information and try to restore their balance. Children who struggle with processing sensory stimuli may exhibit a wide range of symptoms, such as hypersensitivity to sounds, images, and touch, poor fine motor skills, and easy distractibility. Through this accessible, scientifically substantiated guide, school staff can support these students by understanding their symptoms and how they affect their learning. Teachers can learn to see students differently: through so-called 'SPi glasses', which are introduced in the book. With these glasses, you learn to recognize behaviors related to sensory processing and respond quickly, easily, and with more understanding, without the use of diagnosis, medication, or therapy. The techniques provided help children feel calm and quiet at school, making it easier for them to learn and communicate better. Creating the perfect learning environment for all students - a sensory processing-friendly classroom - this tried and proven guide is an essential tool for teachers (with or without prior knowledge of SPD) to better support and understand their students and their sensory needs.
