Being neurodivergent means having a brain that works differently from the average or “neurotypical†person. This may be differences in social preferences\, ways of learning\, ways of communicating and/or ways of perceiving the environment. Because of this\, a neurodivergent person has different struggles and unique strengths.†(Cleveland Clinic\, June 6\, 2022.) Neurodivergent school age children are often diagnosed with ADHA\, autism\, dyslexia and other conditions. They might talk about a narrow range of topics\, have difficulty expressing their feelings or understanding how others feel\, seem uninterested in starting a conversation\, and have difficulty noticing social cues. They often possess unique strengths\, exceptional memory\, creative problem-solving\, and in-depth expertise in their specialized interests. They frequently demonstrate innovative thinking\, pattern recognition\, high energy\, and a strong sense of justice or honesty. When educators learn more about Neurodiversity\, they can help all of their students develop their strengths and live happy and healthy lives. Eligible for 3 hours CTLE credit. If district pays\, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.\nFlyer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WbJNe8uOMVgDKKr6jpX9hzY19wYUB31h/view?usp=sharing\nRegistration: https://www.mylearningplan.com/WebReg/ActivityProfile.asp?D=13208&I=5406239 URL:/event/neurodivergent-learners-what-educators-need-to-know-to-help-them-thrive-virtual-3-hour-workshop-facilitated-by-joan-fretz-830-1130am-2/ LOCATION:Virtual Conference CATEGORIES:Instructional Support Services Full Calendar END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
