Low Demand Sensory Sorting Cards

The PDA Sensory Sorting Toolkit is a low-demand, collaborative activity that allows the student to become the "expert" on their own nervous system. Instead of an intimidating interview, this toolkit uses a simple, tactile sorting game to identify what feels safe and what feels like a threat.

What’s Inside the Toolkit:

• 21 Sensory Category Cards: Clear, descriptive cards covering Auditory, Visual, Tactile, Movement, and Internal (Interoception) triggers.
• The Low-Demand Teacher's Guide: A one-page briefing for staff on how to facilitate the activity using parallel work and declarative language to avoid triggering demand avoidance.
