Learning Objectives:
1. Define sensory integration and neurologic components such as, the senses, the sensory-motor loop, basic neuroanatomy, and central nervous system functioning to apply sensory integration theory to occupational performance.
2. Describe how attention and learning is dependent on sensory functioning. (Typical Sensory Functioning)
3. Identify sensory dysfunction and its effects on academic, social-emotional, behavioral, and motor performance during occupations.
4. Identify evidence-based interventions to address specific sensory dysfunction with successful outcomes.
5. Define intervention plans to address specific sensory dysfunction in a child’s occupation at home, school and in the community.
6. Discuss appropriate environmental and occupation modifications to effectively address sensory functioning at home, school and in the community.
7. Identify progress monitoring tools to effectively measure outcomes for sensory functioning.

Range of Motion (ROM) is the potential movement a joint can move in various directions or planes.
It can be active (AROM): Movement is performed by the individual. It can be passive (PROM): Movement is applied outside of the individual. For the purpose of adapting Alive Activities, it will be assumed that the OT will use clinical judgement in the type of ROM. Unless otherwise stated, the activity can be implemented using both AROM and PROM.

Muscle strength is a muscle’s capacity to exert force against resistance. Endurance refers to the ability to perform a specific muscular action for a prolonged period of time.
