1. Neurodiversity in Action: Practical Strategies for the Classroom 

This workshop bridges the gap between understanding neurodiversity and knowing what to do in the classroom. Educators will leave with practical, immediately applicable strategies to better support neurodivergent (including Autistic and/or ADHD) learners.

4. Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) 

This workshop helps educators understand why students with a PDA (which we describe as Persistent Drive for Autonomy) profile resist everyday demands and how anxiety drives this response. It provides practical strategies to reduce escalation, build trust, and support participation without increasing pressure.

2. Sensory and Classroom

accomodations for Neurodivergent

students
 

Small changes in classrooms can have a big impact on a child's functioning! This workshop explores sensory processing, and the impact that the environment has on autistic and ADHDers.  We look at practical strategies that can be implemented, and tips on how to become a sensory detective.

5. Handwriting: Best practice and

inclusive strategies for teaching

handwriting to all students
 

Ahh handwriting... the great love of O.T's! This workshop explores neurotypical handwriting development and evidence based curriculums/ strategies.    We will outline remediation strategies and accomodations,  to give all students the best chance of achieving efficient and functional handwriting, 

3. Building connections and

relationships: Supporting Social

navigation skills in an affirming way

Navigating social relationships can be hard for any student, but particularly for neurodivergent kids living in a largely neurotypical world.  We explore ways to affirm autistic/ ADHD identity and differing communication styles, build connections and enhance perspective taking within your classroom.

6. Get set for school! Helping

preschoolers develop social/emotional

and motor skills for a smooth

transition

Our preschoolers are not playing like they used to! Now better at swiping iPads than climbing trees or holding crayons.. and it's having an impact. This workshop explores social/emotional, fine/visual motor development and outlines evidence based strategies to support all students, maximising their 'readiness' for school.
