Many of our students with multiple disabilities are often limited in the sensory pathways that can be used to teach new skills or knowledge construction. Our students may be deaf, blind, have reduced tactile sensation, you can eat food and even a taste for the mouth or unable to be engaged in vestibular and proprioceptive, due to medical conditions such as orthostatic hypotension or brittle bones. This means that the sense of smell may be the most powerful means of accessing our students' skills.
Most of us sure to include the sense of smell in our cooking classes, through the vanilla extract or onion each to smell. But how can we include the sense of smell in other areas of the curriculum.
1. Consistently draw attention to the smell of the elements of natural settings, if you can associate the odor with another sense such as touch or hearing. Ask your student notice the smell of crayons, while the way they feel and make the moves for the coloration of the hand over hand. Notice the smell of the ball park as you roll and bounce it. Observe the odor or toothpaste and soap hands to perform activities of daily living.
2. If it is possible to consider embedding smell in a visual schedule board system calendar. A few drops of essential oil of evergreen as gardenia or you can add to the "outside" symbol, a kind of mint smell toothpasty adds the symbol of ADL or a lemon scent to the professional tasks that involve using cleaners with citrus aroma. (You can add flavorings to the symbols, placing a few drops in an oil-free cotton ball in a small bowl or plastic zip bag there on the back or the symbol.)
3. Ask try to stick to the same perfume, aftershave, lotion, perfume or deodorant or even students can associate a person with an odor.
4. Trying to integrate thematic units odors. Learning from India? Introduce each lesson with the smell of curry. Learn about gardening? Introduce each lesson with the smell of soil moisture (put some in a jar of baby food). Think about this when planning your drive.
5. The use of a systematic program (for example, every move counts) an evaluation of preference on the favorite scents of your student. Then You can use this scent to enhance learning activities. To change teaching purposes such as the use of an aroma diffuser and a driver environment.
6. Add a diffuser to scent your sensory area. Can be adapted to run the batteries with a battery switch for the use of switch or get a plug in version and use with a control unit of the environment. Some more expensive versions have a remote control, which means the devices can be programmed IR communication or environmental control units to execute the diffuser.
7. In making the sensory stimulation, sensory and educational activities to consider relaxing the use of aromas:
here are two links to recipes for making scented play dough
Cuervo Crafts (apple pie, cranberry, holiday, pumpkin, pumpkin spice)
Six Yummy Recipes (Rose, chocolate, jelly grape, pumpkin pie, peanut butter, mint)
scented test tubes
chewable
make and use the packets of rice flavored with heat
guess that the smell plays with food or other items
party items with a particular scent (bananas, very good) to the picture or symbol Add
perfume strips of magazine collages and art projects
search for "DIY perfumed", "craft aroma" or similar, to get the idea
