St Patricks Day – A Fully Resourced, step-by-step Multisensory Story & Themed Sensory Extension Activities

St Patrick’s Day – A Multisensory Exploration & Themed Sensory Extension Activities (PDF/eBook)

Rhyming Multisensory Stories connect individuals with special educational needs & disabilities (aged 3-19) to literature, culture and topic in a way that is meaningful to their lives.

A multisensory story is told through the senses using sensory stimuli (story props). The props are low budget, everyday items found around the home.

This story is fully resourced and its easy to follow, step-by-step format makes it accessible for Parents/Carers as well as Teaching Staff, Speech & Language Therapists, Childminders, Play Therapists and anyone with an interest in storytelling in a fun and engaging way!

The story is adapted to meet a range of abilities from curious primary school aged children to adolescents with complex needs.

The rhythm and rhyme promotes communication skills (listening & attention, anticipation, turn-taking and making choices) and builds comprehension and understanding skills.

The themed, sensory extension activities link to areas of the curriculum.

rhyming-multisensory-stories

I live in the UK and have 20 years’ experience working in education, including teaching literacy skills to the travelling community and EFL to Spanish and Moroccan communities.

The last 13 years I have taught literacy, numeracy and speech and language interventions in special education to pupils age 3-19 with a range of learning needs including Autism, Sensory Processing Disorder, Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties, Complex Needs, Behaviour support, Downs Syndrome and Global Delay.

Multisensory stories are aimed at connecting individuals with SEND to literature, culture and topic in a way that is meaningful to the lives.

Multisensory stories tell a story using words and sensory stimuli (story props). The props are all low budget items found around the home and classroom.
Exposure to sensory stimuli, (story props), engages the story explorer with new experiences to calm and alert their sensory system in a safe, therapeutic and fun environment helping them to understand the world around them.

The stories are fully resourced and written in an easy to follow, step by step format making them accessible for Parents, Guardians, Childminders, Early Years Educators, Teachers, HLTA’s, TA's, Speech Therapists, Play Therapists, Support Workers, Activity Coordinators, Storytellers, Librarians and anyone with an interest in exploring storytelling through the senses in a fun and engaging way!

Listening to rhyme and rhythm supports memory and aids learning playing a crucial role in language development, the learning of concepts, communication and early literacy skills such as listening and attention skills, anticipation, turn-taking and making choices.

The stories are adapted to meet a range of abilities and needs from curious preschoolers to teenagers with complex needs.
Each story includes themed, sensory extension activities linking to areas of the curriculum making them suitable for use in mainstream schools with Early Years, Reception, Primary, EAL and Speech and Language students.
