Navigating Unexpected Transitions for Neurodivergent Learners & Families
Much like building a structure or working on a project, you wouldn’t start without the necessary tools. The same rules apply for you when unexpected situations arise. You want to have a “transition toolbox” filled with strategies and go-to items that provide your learner with support when things pop up.
Supporting Learners Through Predictable Transitions
Predictable transitions have a rhythm all their own, one we are familiar with or at least have somewhat of an understanding for what the activity entails. Even if its our first time going to a location (for example a vacation to a new location) you have a general idea of what will happen with traveling and arriving to the destination.
Transitions for Neurodivergent Learners (Quarter 2)
Transitions are a natural part of life but can be really challenging for our learners to navigate. So what do we do? Let’s go over different types of transitions from predictable transitions to unexpected transitions, and transitions on-the-go. You can’t predict everything, but at least you can have some tools in your toolbox to help.
Maintaining Routines for Neurodivergent Learners
This month, our focus is all about making sure the routines and rhythms we have for our learner and family are working and if not, why not? Here we’ll focus on how to help our learners grow to their own level of independence and ways to make changes to get them there.
