Following the same structure and philosophy as Jenny Clark Brack's first book, Learn to Move, Move to Learn, this book focuses on elementary-school age students with sensory processing disorders.

In a comprehensive introduction that covers current trends in education and occupational therapy, the book overviews many evidence-based practices as well as yoga, music, and Speed Stacks. Throughout, the emphasis is on involving the child's team for the best possible outcomes.

A unique feature of this book is that it provides a research foundation for sensory-based activities in a way that is easily understood, allowing you to engage children in fun sensorimotor learning experiences. This way they can learn to better control their fine motor movements, improve eye-hand coordination and strengthen balancing ability, all while having fun and learning about their world.

The book includes 30 sensorimotor, theme-based lesson plans (such as a baseball theme, running a car-wash and going camping) that provide literacy and curriculum suggestions for teachers, and suggests ways that they can be incorporated into busy elementary school schedules and environments. As in Brack's first book, the carefully developed lesson plans offer activities structured around seven elements designed for both learning and fun: Warm-Up, Vestibular, Proprioception, Balance, Eye-Hand Coordination, Cool-Down and Fine Motor.
