Neuro-Affirming Classrooms with Steph at SGR Holistic Occupational Therapy

Today I speak with the beautiful Steph from SGR Holistic Occupational Therapy about how teachers can adopt a neuro-affirming approach in the classroom.

We discuss:

Regulation: Addressing misconceptions
The Zones of Regulation
Teaching children to advocate for what they need
Expected and Unexpected behaviours
How to develop neuro-affirming IEP’s in conjunction with health professionals
Social skills groups- Do they actually help neurodivergent children?
Where to go and how to broaden your knowledge on neuro-affirming practice
What is masking and why it is so detrimental? (This is SO relatable for EVERYONE)

Remember, one step in the right direction is positive. Exceptional teachers are lifelong learners who continue to upskill, learn new things and adapt their practice and approach. At the end of the day we are there for the children so I believe it's important to continue to learn how to best support them in order for them to succeed and thrive!
