Little Mermaid Multi sensory story

This is a multi sensory, plain English version of The Little Mermaid. The story is based on the Ladybird Favourite tales version. It has been rewritten in simple language. The equipment is detailed so you can make a shopping list! The multi sensory elements are described throughout the story, but feel free to adapt to suit your needs, or if you have a better idea! I will be using the resource with secondary age, SEN (SLD / MLD/ complex needs) students for Literacy lessons. The ‘chapters’ are quite short, so each chapter can be used as a sensory story. I plan to do one chapter a week with my class. The use of multi sensory input helps students to retain and understand the information within the story. For more information about why sensory stories are beneficial Google Joanna Grace. I hope you enjoy using this story with your students! please review, so I can improve, th

For more able students, they can press the on/off button on the fan and explore different wind strengths Bubbles! Disco lights, if you don’t have these fairy lights can work or torches with different coloured plastics/acetates stuck to the top of them to create different colours Chocolate spread on a spoon as a taster - or real ice cream if it’s a hot day can be great! (Ensure that you check for allergies/nil by mouth before offering) Vibrating massage tool or vibrating snake (this offers a wonderful sensory experience) Pharell’s ‘Happy’ song, or an agreed class favourite song and the disco lights - have a dance, have a twirl! A dark sheet to place over students, indicating night time This sensory story was delivered once a week for a half term and by the final couple of weeks students were beginning to anticipate elements of the story.
