7 Session 6 The Zones of Regulation: A Concept to Foster Self-Regulation and Emotional Control The Zones of Regulation (2011) curriculum, comprised of lessons and activities designed by Leah Kuypers, M. A. Ed., OTR/L to help students gain skills in the area of self-regulation. The lessons and learning activities are designed to help the students recognize when they re in the different Zones (states of alertness/moods) as well as learn how to use strategies to regulate the Zone they are in. In addition to addressing self-regulation, the students will be gaining an increased vocabulary of emotional terms, skills in reading facial expressions, perspective on how others see and react to their behavior, insight on events that trigger their behavior, calming and alerting strategies, and problem solving skills. Zones trainings provide strategies to teach students to become more aware of and independent in controlling their emotions and impulses, managing their sensory needs and improving their ability to problem solve conflicts. Practical ideas are provided that can easily be incorporated into the classroom or home.

8 Session 7 Common Core State Standards: The Role for Occupational Therapists The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) now being implemented in Illinois and nationwide have significant implications in both general and special education. This initiative creates opportunity for school based occupational therapy practitioners to demonstrate their unique value in supporting student achievement.

9 Session 8 Activity Based Intervention The Role of Adaptive Equipment Current practice recognizes the importance of physical activity and functional outcomes in intervention for children and adults with physical disabilities. This session introduces current concepts such as the ICF framework (International Classification of Function, Disability and Health), the task-oriented approach, motor learning, the MOVE Program, and the impact of adaptive equipment on functioning and skill development. Therapeutic explanations regarding use of adaptive equipment are included throughout, with the goal of building on the individual s current level of function to improve motor skills. Lori Potts, PT, graduated with a degree in physical therapy from Upstate Medical University in NY in She works in clinical pediatrics and orthopedics, and has a consult role with Rifton Equipment, contributing input for equipment design as well as resources for consumer education 9
10 Session 9 School Based PT Best Practices: Student-centered Goals and Databased Decisions We will discuss how we, as medical professionals, can best pursue a student-centered, educational practice. Practical collaboration, data collection and data application are the foundation of these best practices. Participants in this session will select a case study to work through integrated IEP goal development, service recommendations and data collection by applying best practices and the available evidence.

Case studies highlighting postural control, praxis and over responsivity, using the SPM and SPM-P will: Address the clinical reasoning for developing sensory-based strategies, the mechanics and color coded sorting Promote OT/PT/SLP collaboration between school (PE, bus etc), preschool, day care, home and clinics. Implement the Quick Tips Record Form for data recording to examine program effectiveness. Diana Henry, MS, OTR/L, FAOTA is the author of the SPM Quick Tips and coauthor of the standardized assessments Sensory Processing Measures (SPM and SPM-P). She is SIPT certified.

11 Session 11 Enabling Function: Using Evidence-Based and and Data Driven strategies to address the Sensory Motor Needs of children with Autism This presentation will present a clinical-reasoning, decision making guide for evidence-based, data-driven practices for addressing the sensory-motor needs of children with autism. Emphasis is on enabling function and participation via identification of the sensory and motor factors that impact participation in everyday activities. Participants will be introduced to the Data Driven Decision Making Process, and use this process to guide implementation of evidence-based strategies for children with autism including measurement of outcomes. Data Driven Decision Making provides a systematic method for identification of the child s challenges, choice of appropriate theoretical framework(s) to guide assessment and intervention, and the use of assessment and outcome data to evaluate effectiveness. These strategies will be applied to practice in school-based situations and examples from the presenter s recent randomized trial of occupational therapy using sensory integration will be utilized. Participants will have the opportunity to apply this knowledge directly to their practice through guided case analysis of children in their own practice. Principles of sensory integration will be presented and the clinical guidebook for use of sensory integration for children with autism will be utilized to guide intervention and Data Driven Decision Making. Roseann C. Schaaf, PhD, OTR/L, FAOTA is Professor and Chair in the Department of Occupational Therapy, Thomas Jefferson University School of Health Professions, in Philadelphia, faculty in the Farber Institute for Neuroscience, and director of the Advanced Practice Certificates in Neuroscience, Autism, Teaching.
