Notre Dame’s Sensory Path aims to get kids moving
Students at Notre Dame Elementary School in North Battleford now have a new activity to burn off some of their extra energy during the day. A Sensory Path.
The Sensory Path is made up of a large colourful vinyl decal that’s been applied to the floor in the school’s main hallway. Kids can have fun as they hop and jump to complete the various courses that make up the path. There is an educational component too, as the path incorporates numbers, letters from the alphabet, as well as directives to help kids navigate the courses.
Teachers Britana Bidart and Andrea Penner came up with the idea for the project after seeing it online.
Bidart said students in all grades have been trying out the path.
