This presentation will focus on ways to incorporate multi-sensory learning into early childhood, lower elementary, interventionist, and special education classrooms to expand upon student's understanding and use of language, along with, academic and curricular content. The goal is to have participants leave with practical tools that can be implemented immediately into the classroom. Dialogue and hands on learning will be utilized.
