The term Neurodiversity has gained popularity in recent years, and it is now widely used in schools and workplaces, but what does Neurodiversity really mean? This workshop aims to explore the concept and definition of Neurodiversity in Children, and learning more about some of the various conditions it includes, such as Autism, ADHD, and Dyslexia.
This workshop will include some activities to better understand the Neurodivergent experience. We will explore the common characteristics of these conditions, learn how to identify them, and most importantly, learn ways to support children who may be Neurodivergent in a more helpful and effective manner.
