After assessing the student using the Sensory Checklist you will have a better understanding of the category(s) of sensory processing issues your student has. From there you can use the following excellent resources to plan strategies to be incorporated into the student’s learning program and documented in the Sensory Processing Plan

The ‘Strategies for children with Sensory Processing Disorders’ (SPD) publication uses slightly different terminology but it is straightforward to work out.

They both offer a number of daily activities and simple adjustments that can be made to any learning program for each identified category of need.

The book ‘Learning Through the Senses Resource Manual’ is a useful resource for students requiring sensory processing support.

As with many interventions, trial and error comes into play; if strategies are not working ask ‘why?’. Make changes to the strategy you are using or try another one.
