Another visual thesaurus that many people like. (I also use visuwords as it is free.) This is great for helping students define and understand vocabulary in context.
Tactile Defensiveness - The Facts About the Wilbarger Brushing Protocol
Nice article about Wilbarger brushing and ADHD. See your occupational therapist.
There are many that report amazing results (and others who report nothing) from the Willbarger protocol for ADHD.
All I know is that the teacher who had ADHD who had this done in the workshop on Tuesday said her knee pain went away and she was able to sit still w/out her knee jumping up and down for the first time ever. I saw it and am not making it up - but you have to have a person train you on it. Again, it is not authenticated with research, but I sure wish someone would.
