    Delve Into Dyslexia - Part 2

    Laura picks up telling us about dyslexia.  She talks about things we look at as children get into late kindergarten or into first grade.  She says that looking at what they can write can tell us a lot.  She gives us information about decoding and encoding and that those are different skills.  Students can be able to do one and have difficulty with the other.  Have a listen.  We hope you gather new information.  Thank you for listening.  We will be taking a summer break.  We will be back in August.

    Such a Gentle Man - Part 1

    David Hays has been a friend and colleague for decades. Although a bit of a winding road, his career started as a camp counselor before he found his way to special education. He then taught children with significant behavior support needs and retired as an assistant director to a large school district. In this conversation, David talks about the importance of remaining calm, gentle, kind, respectful, and receptive.  What a difference that can make when a student is in crisis! Have a listen and come back next week for the rest of the conversation. Thank you!

    If You Want To Know, Ask The Parents

    Educators or therapists may be the expert on math, reading, strategies, etc., but parents are the experts on their child.  Cissy shares a story about a really fun student with an expert parent.  She learned as much from the parent as she did the student.  She and Susan talk about another student and the idea of keeping your word when you tell a student that you are going to give them a reward for a specific behavior.  Some of the things they talk about have complex explanations from the ABA view, but are things that parents can do with their children even if they do not know the technical terms.  Thank you for listening.

    Presume Competence - Part 2

    Susan and Cissy continue their conversation with Mary Fitzgerald.  She gives great advice like watching peers of the same age as the individuals you are working with to see what makes for fun social activities.  Uno can be fun, but if no one in their school is doing that, we should do something else.  They also talk about the impact inclusion has had such that individuals with special needs participate regularly in activities in their school and community.  She also talks about the importance "consent for touch".  Asking for permission to provide physical support teaches that others should ask as well and that we all have the right to say "no".

    Presume Competence - Part 1

    Mary Fitzgerald is a master educator.  She has worked with school districts, educational service centers, and with business partners for many years making education better for many, many students.  In this conversation, she emphasizes the importance of presuming competence with students as we interact with them and around them.  In this first half of the conversation, she talks about a student who had been hitting peers who were interacting with her.  Presuming that she could participate in a conversation with her peers about this made a big difference.  She has many stories to illustrate such a difference it can make to remember that everyone should be treated with respect.  Have a listen and come back for the rest of the conversation next week.  Thank you!

    Dr. Atherton Talks Anthropomorphism and More - Part 2

    The conversation continues with Dr. Gray Atherton as she moves into a discussion of video games.  She talks about finding ways to incorporate similarities to video games in activities, but make the activities involve others and social interaction.  It could be games that create a "battle" with figurines or something like paintball.  She suggests trying to channel their interests into something that creates opportunities to interact with others.  Many of these activities are things that people who are neurotypical enjoy.  Her discussion of research around these things is very encouraging.  Thank you for listening.  Hope you got the answer for the question.
