Mrs. Boss worked with our technology department to utilize a 3D printer to manufacture a device to assist our students. Our OT/Language group at RMS is fascinated by the new "Energy Meter," and how it relates to identifying "where your energy is" during the day.
The sliding 3D Energy Meter is designed to help individuals identify and communicate how their Energy Levels change, and to choose a coping strategy to help maintain consistent sensory regulation. (Autism Level Up) #gopurple
