Sensory motor integration is the unique sensory development and emotional ability of each person to be aware of their mind-body connection. Gaining sensory-motor integration is an important skill for managing transitions, changing routines, and increasing alertness for learning. This competency is essential for all children, regardless of developmental assets or needs. Further, this competency is a part of providing trauma responsive education, because we know that toxic stress impacts the hearts, minds, and bodies of children.

About: Use the images and descriptions as a guide. Focus on using movement to invite calm, and don’t worry about practicing perfectly aligned poses. Ensure that your students have enough space to practice the poses so that they aren’t bumping heads or stubbing toes. And make sure that they are safe with their bodies. Have them focus on gentle movement that feels comfortable. This process will help to increase their body awareness, too.
