Description

This workshop will draw on the specialisms of autism, occupational therapy and language and communication, in learning and understanding how we can use visuals to support a range of needs at the whole class, small group and individual level. The workshop will be interactive and include some theoretical knowledge of how visuals can be useful in supporting children with executive functioning and physical needs/differences, but also how they are helpful in supporting learning, understanding and remembering for all students. The workshop will also demonstrate a range of visuals supports and how they can be used.
