Wiggle and Fidget In the Classroom - About the influence of sensory stimulus processing on learning

Wiggle and Fidget In the Classroom -Dutch

Every teacher knows them: students who are always rocking their chairs or prefer to hide in their hoods all day. It seems as if these students are not involved in class and are not paying attention at all. Awkward behavior, you might think, but in reality these students use all kinds of tricks to stay on task. They are sensory under- or over-stimulated and try to restore their balance.

This book shows how useful it is to wiggle and fidget in the classroom! It clearly explains how sensory stimulus processing works, both for students and the teacher herself. Teachers learn to look at students in a different way: through so-called ZiP glasses. With these glasses on, they see the abnormal stimulus processing and can react to it quickly, easily and with more understanding. Without using a diagnosis, medication or therapy.

This book is above all very practical. There are many (didactic) tips that make the classroom and lesson sensory-friendly and thus increase learning efficiency for all students.
