Come join us for a Supporting Neurodiverse Students Combo training day.  This training day aims to serve as an introduction, on a variety of topics, for educators and families supporting children with disability-related needs in the area of social and emotional learning (SEL). The goal of this session is to give an introduction to skill-based approaches to challenging behaviors to improve adult practices. The day will be broken into three 2-hour mini topic sessions.  Sessions that will be covered on this day will be: Behavior Impedes Learning? I’ve checked yes, now what! (8am-10am), Empower Students: Teaching Students About Their Brain (10:30am-12:30pm), and Self-Management Through Visuals (1:00pm-3:00pm).  Explanations of the individual sessions can be found at www.snswi.com.
