Weekly Recap: Workshop Replay, Resources for Teachers, & a Local Event!

This week’s workshop replay…

Book announcement!

I highly recommend EVERYONE read AUTISM OUT LOUD. It’s not just for parents raising autistic kids, it’s for parents raising neurotypical kids, neighbors, educators—everyone.

We can’t become a more inclusive community until we understand the stories of everyone living in our communities.

This book is available everywhere, but I encourage you to either buy local at the link below, or join us in Raleigh on May 19th for a book signing with Adrian Wood (I’ll be there) where 100% of the proceeds will benefit Public Schools First NC.

Resources for teachers…

Did you know that teachers get 50% off paid subscriptions? It’s an honor system so behave accordingly :) *login with a browser if you don’t see the discount in the app*

A word about behavior charts…

I believe behavior charts are for teachers and not for students. Behavior charts should help adults privately track data and solve problems, not bring awareness to show kids they aren’t doing well.

They likely already know they aren’t meeting expectations, but they don’t know what to do instead. We have to teach them a better way. But first, we have to figure out what they need and that’s where behavior charts for teachers come in.

Here are a few behavior charts I’ve created for teachers over the years. Free to download at the link!
