Ramadan – A Sensory Story invites Neurodiverse, PMLD, Sensory and SEND learners to engage in a rich, multisensory journey through Ramadan. Each activity promotes connection and personal agency, inviting learners to explore at their own pace while fostering communication and confidence.
With adaptable steps and a focus on sensory experiences, this resource supports inclusive, engagement, inviting sensory learners to explore Ramadan through the eight senses: the five primary senses -sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell, and three body-based/internal senses – vestibular, proprioception, and interoception. It weaves together tactile props, sounds, scents, tastes, and movement with poetic language and gentle facilitator guidance.
From symbolically sighting the crescent moon and stars, touching prayer beads, exploring dates and spices to enjoying sensory-rich activities including a sensory umbrella, silhouette play and sensory artwork, this Ramadan sensory story is rich with hands-on invitations.
Rooted in a commitment to accessibility, engagement, meaningful communication, and sensory inclusion, each couplet offers a sensory prompt guiding the story participant through a journey where every sense is welcome.
