Fidgets are wonderful aids for students-however we are responsible to TEACH students how to use fidgets appropriately. Check out this awesome video by @kwiens62 that you can show your student! #inclusion #education #specialeducation #adhd #asd #fidgets

[Kristin Wiens @kwiens62]

I got hit in the head once with a fidget - ouch!
That's when I realized I needed to teach guidelines to kids. So I created this short video (3 mins) to help students understand how to use #fidgets as learning tools not toys. #Inclusion #SD62learns

@SSPSofficial can you top this? #canadadoesitbest

[Karissa Clark @KClarkSLSST]

With your student, collaboratively create a ‘what if’ page that outlines different solutions to problems. What a great way to help students increase their independence and self-confidence! Thanks for the tip Tara Connolly! #ASD #transitions #GCAST2018 @Geneva_Centre

Teaching someone to use a communication device? Dr Generser says, spend 1 full day where no one asks them a question, and track how often they use the device. Do they use it independently or only when prompted by a question? #GCAST2018 @Geneva_Centre

New study shows parent-child #interbrain continues to be a key part of #stress response and recovery during #adolescence. "…the level of dyadic neural concordance in mother-child dyads was associated with lowered stress in adolescents." https://t.co/GbkQSUnxzU

Goal: foster independence in our students. Action Plan: recognize what form of prompt we are using, and create a plan to fade the prompts-therefore increasing independence. #prompting #visuals #ABA #Structuredlearning #EducationForAll https://t.co/K0M4NNf5va

[Kristin Wiens @kwiens62]

Which level of prompts are you providing your students?
Do you have a plan to fade the prompts and build independence?
