Proprioceptive Classroom Strategies
Proprioceptive (body awareness) is how the body senses itself. Some kids do not adequately receive or process information from their muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments, or connective tissue. This results in inadequate feedback about movement and body position.
Classroom Strategies
Carry and pass out milk cartons
Weight blanket/vest / stuffed animals
Climb on playground equipment/monkey bars
Weighted pillow on the lap while sitting
Carry heavy books and supplies and pass them out to the class/ bring them to the office or another classroom
Pressure garments
Seat cushions
Chair push up while sitting & wall push-ups while standing
