Untangling: Supporting Students with Higher Impact Needs

Students who do not use verbal language as their main communication mode are often misunderstood. At times, their communications modes are ignored, misunderstood or viewed as wrong or bad. Behavior that is challenging to us is only challenging until we know strategies to meet learners where they are. Come increase your understanding of how to show up for students who may have significant support needs.

This workshop is offered at no cost.

Registrants will receive login information and materials prior to the workshop. This training will not be recorded. If you register less than 24hrs prior to the event day please contact Kristy Schroeder if you have not received the zoom links.
