<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#002060">We also have found that one of the most helpful groups would be to get in OT’s to talk about sensory sensitivity and perspective. If the teachers can start to understand how differently
a child perceives different situations it would change how some of these parents view the schools. Pam Moore and Wendy Huckaby from Able Kids Therapy would be my first suggestion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
