Join Sue for an upcoming Live Virtual Workshop where you will learn from Sue practical tips & strategies to make a difference.
In this episode, we will discuss:
✅ Internalizing ADHD/autism presents differently than externalizing behaviors. ✅ Girls often mask difficulties through perfectionism and helping others. ✅ Shutdowns can be mistaken for seizures or non-participation. ✅ Parent-teacher trust relationships are crucial for supporting neurodivergent students. ✅ Classroom accommodations should benefit all students, not individuals. ✅ Social anxiety often underlies masking behaviors in schools. ✅ Library resources help students self-identify neurodivergent traits.
