The world expects the impossible from teachers, with so many young people in our care - all with unique needs.
How do we help everyone to thrive?
- Imagine a classroom where there is no 'normal' - where all brains are expected and welcomed.
- Students are taught about neurodiversity, metacognition, and self-advocacy alongside the curriculum and are encouraged to identify their own needs.
- Learning tools are taught and available to everyone!
This thoughtful guide breaks down the learning process. It's brimming with practical tips, brain-based strategies, and illustrative examples that teachers can implement in the classroom.
Stories of real teachers and neurodivergent students help educators envision how to apply neurodiversity-affirming approaches.
This book invites a compassionate lens for teachers and students alike. It's the how-to of forging partnerships with students - our best resources in collaboratively problem-solving pressing classroom concerns and invisible learning needs. Everyone benefits when we plan with accessibility in mind!
