What helps you?

Your senses are a super power to help your brain remember things

Here are some examples. 

  • Sing a song about a lesson.
  • Build a model.
  • Smell smells that fit with the lesson.
  • Create a video and watch it again later.
  • Jump up and down in rhythm to a poem.

 

What works for you?

Too much of a good thing can cause challenges

People with FASD can also be oversensitive to sensory input.

That’s very real and it’s best to avoid things that overwhelm you.

Sometimes an occupational therapist can  help.
