Inclusive Education SIG: Emotional Regulation Strategies for Neurodivergent Children: 08 April

15:00 (London time)

Facilitated by: Dr. Amanda Blackwell

Emotional regulation and the modulation of energy levels are often areas of challenge for children with autism. This workshop will provide educators with concrete strategies that respect the essence of the child while also helping them to learn new tools for regulating their own emotions and energy levels.
