Students with Autism continue to learn uniquely in today’s classrooms. At the same time, there are always questions about how educators can best support them. This series will share strategies and content, and educators will have time to practice to develop a better understanding and increase a positive classroom culture and environment. These skills are applicable and should be used throughout the school year. The instruction and strategies may vary since “no two students are the same.” Reflection and networking opportunities will be included throughout each of the sessions, along with how these skills can be bridged into practice. You can sign up for multiple sessions, as there will be a variety of relevant topics discussed in the area of Autism. All educators are welcome and encouraged to attend.
