Reasons I love using sensory bins ⬇️
Because one simple activity can target SO many communication goals while keeping therapy hands-on, engaging, and easy to adapt for different students.
Here are a few ways I use them:
Vocabulary - naming and describing themed objects
AAC - modeling core words like more, see, open...
WH questions - What did you find? Where was it? What color is it?
Following directions - “Find the small pumpkin"
Expanding utterances - moving from single words to phrases and sentences
Prepositions & concepts - put it in, under, next to, behind, big, little, etc.
Bilingual language development - introducing and reinforcing vocabulary across English and Spanish
Speech sounds - choosing target words based on each student’s goals
