Intended Audience: SLPs, special educators, classroom teachers, and paraeducators working in schools.
This full-day workshop is designed to equip professionals with the knowledge necessary to start considering how to provide inclusive services to all learners from a neurodiversity paradigm framework.
Participants will:
· Identify and define neurodiversity, the neurodiversity paradigm, and the neurodiversity movement
· Identify common differences observed in neurodivergent learners, most specifically in the areas of socialization, communication, play, and sensory differences
· Identify and describe strategies to reframe goal writing for neurodivergent learners to maximize independence and quality of life
· Identify and describe applicable ways to initiate small changes in your classroom, school, or district to begin celebrating neurodiversity
