Interesting implications for adolescents with #devlangdis who will likely struggle to describe negative emotions.
Psychiatric Times (@PsychTimes) profile picturePsychiatric Times@PsychTimes31 Jul 2019
Adolescents who can identify and precisely describe their negative emotions are less susceptible to depressive symptoms after stressful life events than those who cannot (study). psycnet.apa.org/doi/10.1037/… #mentalhealth #teens #emotions #psychology

When teachers read challenging novels aloud, poor readers made 16 mos. of progress on a standardized reading test in 12 wks. Comprehension instruction made no difference. Just one study, but maybe it's an approach worth trying. forbes.com/sites/nataliewexl…

Have you ever heard the word #proprioception said by your OT but not really known what that long p-word means? If so then this post was written for you #teachers #parents #sensory #sen #sendco #learning bit.ly/2VvEXrc

Let's talk about proprioception - our hidden sixth sense!

Proprioception is often referred to as our hidden sixth sense! It is responsible for body awareness and helps our coordination. Learn more about it here.

Social skills like waiting and turn-taking can be easy to practise through the holidays by playing simple card and board games. Adapt games to your child's level, social skills develop over time so it's important to stretch your child's skills just a little bit. #SLCN #SEND

We should challenge policy which places all responsibility on families says @cristina_mckean We need to be careful about the rhetoric re early intervention shifting trajectories - implies we only need early intervention - not true at all!
