Our Newest Learning Device - the Wall of Senses
|
Wall Of Senses (WOS) The Model WOS is designed to support the Active Learning instruction process for blind/vision impaired, and children with multiple disabilities. The goal of the WOS Project is to make specialized active learning equipment that is appropriate for the developmental stages of body-space concepts available to children. The WOS is a tool that complements and expands the success a child experiences using the Site Of Senses (SOS) active learning environment. The WOS assists a child to reach off body for toys. Its small defined space also facilitates the development of spatial and orientation skills. It is a tool that provides non-visual motivation for the child without vision as well as visual motivation for the child with low vision. The WOS is designed to facilitate development in the areas of � cognitive mapping, � object permanence, � gross and fine motor movement, and; � social skills. The WOS can be designed and personalized for individual children�s needs by offering age appropriate and motivating toys perfect for them. |
