This book would make a great resource for preschool teachers. It discuss "red flags" indicating that a child might have sensory processing issues, when to refer children for services, and strategies for accommodating different sensory needs in the classroom. Most preschoolers, even those who don’t have sensory processing disorder, have differing sensory needs and struggles, so these strategies will be useful for all teachers.
