Archives: Skippack Sensory Walls

I have taken a student on a walk and allowed a minute at each of the sensory walls as a reward for calming down.

They are AMAZING

All the students seem to like the wall. They look at it and want to play with it every time they pass it. I think it is a wonderful addition, especially for our kids with autism.

Nice break for the students in my class that use it.

I use the upstairs sensory wall for students going between classes as a short break.

I have taken several students from the AS program to the first-floor sensory wall to calm down. One student even asked to walk to the sensory wall so she could calm down.

My students use the sensory wall to help re-regulate throughout the school day.

This wall serves as a regulation tool for students, offering them a quick break from their day or a way to calm down when emotions are heightened, helping them refocus on learning. It’s also beneficial because it normalizes the need for sensory breaks, showing students that anyone might need one – not just those with special tools like fidgets. This approach helps reduce the spotlight on our neediest students.

“I really like it because it calms me down and makes me happy.”

“There are lots of things to do.  It’s the GOAT!”
