Sensory Profiles/ Intervention
We use the Sensory Profile 2 to complete a Sensory Assessment – this can be solely school based or school and home.
From this assessment we provide a Sensory Profile report with the results and a range of strategies to try in the school/home environment.
Fine Motor/Gross Motor
When classroom teachers are concerned about a student’s development in regard to fine and gross motor tasks, we are able to complete an observation session with the student (either in class or out) and provide specific strategies to assist or offer ongoing therapy to assist with skill development.
