@attipscast @rachelmadelslp @FloreoTech Yes, exactly! They have so many more relevant modules now. The sensory spaces and guided meditations are awesome too. We’ll be chatting about it at our ATIA presentation :) #atia2022

Ready for a paradigm shift? Many students with behavioral disorders also have an expressive or receptive language disorder.

Students who act out may not be trying to get in trouble.

But, they may be trying to communicate a need.

Hot off the presses…. I made and donated a visual guide for getting started on Proloquo2Go for Lilly’s Voice to give to parents to help them get their child’s AAC app set up. Many of them don’t have an SLP to help them. Made my heart happy to be able to create this for them 💕

@attipscast @ABowkerSLP #ActuallyAutistic voices equate ABA with abuse. It forces masking, inhibits freedom, and strips any semblance of autonomy. It facilitates trauma, not teaching.

Love this 🌈

[EJ Piccirillo @eslp5190]

@mmatp @possbeth Empowering students to advocate for their needs across settings is crucial. When I was a full time SLP, I would encourage students to share exemplars of their work or teach others about tools in their toolkit. Let them sit in the driver’s seat!

[EJ Piccirillo @eslp5190]

@KarenJan My role takes me to many different educational programs across CT which are all designed differently. It’s usually the integrated classrooms with tiered supports everyone has access to that I have found to facilitate the most student success!

A1: Recently I have been thinking of inclusion and equity as synonymous. Different learners have different needs, but all of them deserve the same opportunities. #FETCchat
