Sensory integration is an important part of the program at the Graham Academy and we have equipped our sensory gym with objects that help our students.  From bouncers to swings, items in the sensory gym are used on a daily basis by our students under the supervision of our staff to help stimulate the vestibular system and help develop gross motor-skills, visual tracking and frontal lob supports.  We are consistently looking for ways to add variety to and  improve  the resources available for our students and how they can be implemented into our sensory gym.  To learn more about the importance of the vestibular system and why we created this specific environment read Dr. MacAlpines’ synopsis of the vestibular system and vestibular exercises HERE.
