June 1st

Dinosaur Day

Celebrate the day the sensory way!



Dinosaur Dig This sensory play engages the senses, fine motor skills as the student manipulates the objects, problem-solving through experimentation, and creativity & imagination through exploration. You will need

  • Box/tray/Tuff Tray

  • Sand/soil/stones/pebbles/twigs/leaves/grass (for a less mess option replace the sand/soil with dried pulses, barley/lentils, and/or dried beans)

  • Toy dinosaurs/cotton wool buds (bones), shells (fossils)

  • Items to promote fine motor skills: lidded containers (for storing your finds) paintbrushes (assorted sizes), a sieve for sifting the sand/soil/pulses, spoons, a toothbrush, scoops, and a jug of water.

  • Items to promote scientific investigation: camera, magnifying glass, notebook, and a pencil (for recording findings), ruler, torch

  • Bury pinecones and pine branches (pine trees were around in pre-historic times!)


Tip

Take learning outdoors and re-create your archaeological dig in the sandpit. (If you do not have a sandpit then a tomato grow bag is a good alternative)


Tip

Replace the sand with taste safe 'sand' by mixing flour, crushed cereal (Rice Krispies or Cornflakes are ideal) and adding a little water to reach your preferred consistency. Option to add spices (cinnamon will give an authentic soil brown colour)

Encourage the sensory explorers to use the tools to unearth treasure and record their findings


Extend Learning

Add items not found in prehistoric times e.g., coins, dice, a Lego brick, a toy car, a stainless steel, or plastic spoon

Can the sensory explorer recognise these items as being the red herrings?

(SALT) Promote Functional Language

Can the sensory explorer name the item?

Can the sensory explorer tell you what the item is used for? If they are unsure, then provide plenty of clues.

Can the sensory explorer tell you why they think the item would not have been invented in prehistoric times?


June 7th

Butterfly Education & Awareness Day (BEAD)

A day to raise awareness and celebrate butterflies.


The Very Hungry Caterpillar Sensory Story

Based on the book by Eric Carle, this activity connects students to literature and engages the senses providing the opportunity for students to explore and express their likes, dislikes and sensory preferences giving them a voice and a choice.


You will need:

  • Torch

  • Leaf

  • Egg (Pop a drop of glue on the leaf then leave to dry)

  • Red and green pipe cleaners

  • Apple

  • Pear

  • Plum

  • Strawberries

  • Oranges

  • 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar' book by Eric Carle


Read 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar' story by Eric Carle presenting the props/sensory stimuli as they appear in the story.


  1. The Leaf: Dim the lights then shine the torch onto the leaf. Can the sensory explorer find the egg? Explore cause and effect, can the students use turn the torch ON/OFF independently?

  2. The Caterpillar: Promote fine motor skills. Can the sensory explorer twist red and green pipe cleaners to make a caterpillar?

  3. The Fruit: Engage the senses and explore likes, dislikes and sensory preferences. Offer the apples, pears, plums, strawberries and oranges for the sensory explorer to touch, smell and taste. Can the students choose between two preferred items? Can the sensory explorer make a rejection if they do not like any of the items?

  4. The Other Foods: Print out and laminate a matching board with the chocolate cake, ice cream, Swiss cheese, salami, lollipop, cherry pie, sausage, melon, and a cupcake. Print out a set of matching pictures. Can the sensory explorer match the correct picture to the one on the matching board?


Extend Learning

Cut the pictures out.

Can the sensory explorer place the pictures in the correct order that the items appear in the story?



5. The Lettuce Leaf: Present lettuce leaves for the students to touch, smell and taste.

Tip: A mixed bag of salad presents a range of colours, tastes and textures for the sensory explorer to explore.

Discuss healthy eating. Can the sensory explorer group the food items into healthy foods and foods you would eat as a treat? (Link to 'Healthy Eating Week 10-14 June)

6. The Cocoon: Can the sensory explorer climb into a sleeping bag or stretch in a body sock like the caterpillar?

7. The Butterfly: Open a parachute and move it up and down slowly like the wings of a butterfly.


Parachute Game:

  • Place plastic fruits on the parachute.

  • Can the sensory explorer keep the fruit on the parachute as it is lifted up and down?

  • If the fruits drop, can the students catch and name them.

Extend Learning:

Can the sensory explorer retell the story using the props?


Alternative Activity:

Can the sensory explorer make a fruit kebab containing the correct quantities of fruit as they appear in the story? (One apple, two (pieces of) pear, three (pieces of) plums, four strawberries, five (pieces of) oranges?


Health & Safety Guidance

  • Be Allergy Aware

  • Beware of Potential Choking Hazards (remove pips/stones/seeds)


Non-Food Alternative Activity

Read the story then explore dried fruit peel, scented body lotions/creams and/or essential oils.

Does the sensory explorer show a preference for a scent or make a rejection if they do not like a scent?


Guidance: When working with scents, start at a distance and work your way towards the person taking their lead as to some individuals, smells may be overpowering.


Plant a butterfly garden

You will need:

  • Bowl

  • Wildflower seeds

  • Tissue paper

  • Water

  • Spoon


Method

  1. Tear or cut the tissue paper into tiny pieces and place into the bowl.

  2. Add the wildflower seeds.

  3. Mix using a spoon or your hands.

  4. Add a little water to bind.

  5. Roll into balls.

  6. Leave to dry on a sunny windowsill.

  7. Throw or plant into the garden/outdoor area.

  8. Watch as your garden/outdoor area transforms into a carpet of colour!

  9. At the end of summer, harvest the dried seeds and store in a paper bag ready to plant next year!


Explore the life cycle of a butterfly

If you have a class budget, purchase a butterfly growing kit. Raise and feed your own butterflies watching them transform from caterpillars to adult butterflies before releasing into the wild.

'Strawberry Fields' by Austyn
'Strawberry Fields' by Austyn

Strawberry Fields Sensory Art

This stunning piece of sensory art was sent in by Austyn (Aged 9)

(Thanks to his teacher Jude)


Re-Create Austyn's Artwork

You will need

  • Canvas/paper/card

  • Scourer

  • Brown paint

  • Red paint

  • Fine paintbrush

  • Foam


Activity

1. Create the texture of the field by applying brown paint to the canvas/paper/card using a scourer.

2. Draw a strawberry shape on a piece of paper, place on a piece of foam and cut around it. 3. Dip the foam into red paint then print onto the canvas/paper/card.

4. Create the green leaves and stalks of the strawberries by finger painting.

5. Dip the end of a paint brush in yellow paint then dot onto the strawberries to create the seeds.


On this Day in History

3rd June 1965

Astronaut Ed White became the first American to conduct a spacewalk.


Activity Idea

Walking on the Moon This activity will build strength, balance and promote physical development and can take place in the classroom, outdoor area or in the PE hall as part of a PE session. Create a moonscape adventure obstacle course using PE equipment.

  • Crawl through the tunnels of the rocket: Tunnel/blanket/scramble net.

  • Descend the rocket steps: Steps/balance beam/balance bar.

  • Follow the footprints of aliens: Throw down feet/stilts/giant foam feet/stompers.

  • Navigate moon rocks: Lay a sensory pathway using hula hoops/balance steps/’River Stones’/stepping logs.

  • Take a ride on a moon buggy: Scooter board/balance board/’Saturn Skippers’, space hopper

  • See how high you can bounce on the moon: Trampoline/mini trampoline/space hopper

  • Catch the floating picnic items: Place plastic/toy food (fruit/paper plates etc) on a parachute, waft upwards to make the fruit float then catch the fruit in the parachute as it lands.

Tip! Create a space landscape in your soft playroom. Place black material on the floor to represent space or a black hole then make an obstacle course by placing foam wedges/rockers/gym mats/balance balls/beanbags/pillows/cushions around the room. Invite the students to navigate their way through space in their rocket over the soft play equipment avoiding falling into the black hole?

Invite the students make their movements slow and bouncy taking large, slow leaps around the room like an astronaut?


Idea!

Play space music or space sound effects (e.g., space shuttle launch, cargo door closing, engines roaring, fans, mission control countdown from ten, radio waves, windstorm, beep, drone, matrix, ambient space sound) in the background.


Take Learning Outdoors

If you have outdoor play equipment/climbing wall/frame create a story around the equipment e.g., climbing the ladders to descend the rocket then re-create a spacewalk using the play equipment.


Have a budget?

Consider purchasing a set of Sound Steps. These are foam stepping-stones that play sound recordings (up to 30 seconds) when you step on them. Perfect for your sensory adventures!

I love the cover to this resource designed by Megan Dunwell (age 12) from Greater Manchester who won a competition to design the cover for 'Summer - A Multisensory Exploration' £3.98

Megan made this picture at home with her lovely Mum.

The design was printed onto canvas.

The stems are ribbons.

Megan chose which flower and colour she wanted to use each time from choice of 2 different options.

The leaves are Megan's fingerprints which added a personal touch.


'Summer - A Multisensory Exploration' is a bumper resource and includes 101 summer themed sensory extension.


'The colours of summer are the bright yellow sun

That lights up the room when the day has begun

The deep blue hues of the sapphire sky

Streaks like white chalk where the planes have flown by.'

The Sparrows Sensory Sun Activity


Sparrows Class at Hebden Green School in Winsford, Cheshire, had great fun creating their Sensory Sun.


Sparrows Class Teacher Vicky-Ormerod Jordan tells us about the activity and explains how to re-create it.


'The children participated in several multi-sensory activities linked to the sun, which all combined to make their final art piece. The process took a number of sessions which spanned across one full week.'


To re-create the activities


You will need

  • Large yellow or orange scrunchy elastic band or ribbons

  • Oranges and lemons

  • Yellow flowers or leaves

  • Torch

  • Yellow/orange/white paint

  • Paper


Activity 1: The Stretchy Band

'The children held onto a giant yellow stretchy band and participated in songs linked to the sun and summer. Our favourite song was ‘The Sun has Got His Hat On’ but we also enjoy singing ‘You are my Sunshine’ and ‘Sunshine in my Heart.’ The children lifted the band up, down and side to side and rocked forward and back to the music, focusing on their vestibular sense. We also played Vivaldi’s ‘Summer’ from The Four Seasons and moved rhythmically to the music, pinging the band like a violin. We then placed the stretchy band into a circular shape to be the centre of our sun.'


Vicky and Sparrows Students

Activity 2 Sunlight Superstars

'We explored how the sun provides light so living things survive by shining a torch on various parts of our bodies.

We shined the torch on our hands, arms, legs and chin, (being careful not to shine it in our eyes). The children used photos/symbols of body parts to choose where they would like the torch to shine next.


Activity 3: Let’s get Messy- The Sun’s Rays

'To make the sun’s rays, the class chose to use either their hands or their feet. We mixed white and yellow together to make different shades of yellow and also had orange paint available. The children chose their preferred paint colour and made splats with their hands, feet or both! Some pupils preferred to cut out their handprint and use a paintbrush instead, developing fine motor skills. After letting the paint dry, we arranged the hand and footprints to look like rays of sunshine coming out from the centre of our sun.'

Sparrows Class Hebden Green School

Activity 4: Oranges and Lemons

'We sang the rhyme ‘Oranges and Lemons’ and then supported the children to use their senses, focusing on touch, smell and taste. The children rolled the oranges and lemons, and we touched their bumpy, cold skin. We then chopped the oranges and lemons and spent time exploring the smell, touch and taste. The fruit was then placed into the centre of our sun, making a circle. We even added yellow tennis balls as a nod to Wimbledon!'


Thank you to Class Teacher Vicky Ormerod-Jordan and to her wonderful team: Nicky, Ann & Alice and last, but definitely not least, the stars of the show, the students of Sparrows Class!
