    The document provides a sensory matrix that lists potential sensory triggers in each sense (sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste, vestibular system) that could occur in an art classroom. For each trigger, it suggests possible solutions to reduce sensory overload, such as allowing natural light, using headphones, providing alternative materials, avoiding strong smells and flavors, instructing slow movements, and preparing materials in advance. The matrix aims to identify sensory triggers and offer accommodations so students can fully participate in art activities while managing their sensory needs.
