Why Are They Doing That? Sensory Processing Behaviors in the Music Class
With Joanie Calem
SPD/Autism/ACES are becoming more common throughout our schools. These conditions, though stemming from disparate roots, all often present with sensory overload. Maintaining sensory friendly classrooms and practices allow these children to participate in music activities in a way that they likely would not be able to without these strategies in place. Music teachers need to be aware of these conditions as possible explanations for behaviors. Access and equity also need to address students whose starting points are different because of neurological factors.
This workshop reviews 8 sensory areas, common behaviors that are a result of Sensory Processing Disorder, and simple strategies for the busy music teacher to put in place to support all students and maintain compassionate, inclusive classrooms.
