Sensory IntegrationProfessional Development SeminarsPolly Godwin Emmons and Liz McKendry AndersonSensory Integration is coming to the forefront of education as a key element in the areas of learning, development and behavior. Sensory integration is the ability to feel, understand and organize sensory information from one's body and environment. In essence, Sensory Integration sorts, orders and eventually integrates all individual sensory inputs for cognitive and social-emotional development, and so is central to children's growth. This plays out in both academic achievement and classroom behavior.This training is a must for all public and private schools that are interested in promoting optimal learning and student achievement as well as integrating effective management techniques into the school environment.

| "A clever explanation on important information... I read many books on child development, but Polly and Liz gave the information a clear and humane voice, using marvelous, understandable examples. Thank you." | "Amazing presentation. The material was offered in such a way that the participants could fully understand what is behind the sensory 'issues'. Very believable from two educators who have 'lived' the information." |
