About this Course

Course Description

Every year students are exhibiting increased challenges in motor skills, attention, visual skills, and behavior.

Research also indicates an increase in childhood obesity. School based therapists have the expertise to increase participation in school routines and design programming to improve function and inclusion. It is the responsibility of school-based therapists to collaborate with a variety of school partners to support student success and contribute to both general and special education. School wide movement initiatives, such as motor labs and sensory paths, can be added to the school environment to promote healthy school climates needed for learning.

This course will review the research to encourage using these school-wide movement initiative programs. It will also provide you with specific strategies for adding motor labs and sensory paths into your school environment.
