Description

In this Hotline episode, Phyllis answers a listener question about how teachers (and others who work in schools) can better support neurodivergent children. 


Drawing from her own experiences with various educational environments for her daughter, Phyllis emphasizes:



  • The importance of recognizing and accommodating individual needs in the classroom

  • Understanding that all behavior is communication

  • Why sensory breaks should never have to be "earned" and why withholding recess is counterproductive

  • The need for regular communication between teachers and parents 

  • Always presuming competence in neurodivergent students
