The Whole Spectrum of
Social, Motor and Sensory Games
Barbara Sher
This
book is an excellent resource for activities to undertake with children. The book has an emphasis about working with
children and young people who are on the autistic spectrum or experience
sensory processing difficulties.
However, this book is a useful addition for anyone working or caring for
children and young people.
There
is an increasing awareness of sensory processing difficulties and this book gives
you a clear understanding of sensory processing difficulties whilst providing
practical activities to support and address the difficulties. The book is full of games and activities that
can be undertaken in groups, classrooms, large play areas or one to one
interactions.
The
book provides clear directions, goals, variations and modifications for each
activity. Another useful element is with
each activity comes the potential learning points for the children. It is easily accessible and quick resource
book.
It
mainly caters for nursery and primary age children; however the activities can
be adapted to meet the needs of older children.
It is a must for home or school book shelf.
