Continuing Autism Awareness Month with key takeaways from “Supporting Autistic Well-Being in Secondary Schools: Moving From Participation to Belonging.”

True support isn’t just about building individual skills, environment matters just as much. When we listen to autistic students and understand their daily experiences, we can create spaces where they feel genuinely accepted… and that sense of belonging is what truly impacts quality of life.

Many kids use their special interests (SpIns) as a built-in coping strategy 🧠✨

These interests help them make sense of and connect with the world around them. Use of a spinner provides visual, tactile, and vestibular sensory input that aids in self-regulation, grounding, and focus. For many, it becomes “the lens through which they see the world.” 💛

✨ Rethinking “Repetitive Behaviors” in Autism ✨

Recent research review from the informed SLP, “Spinning and SpIn-ing: Re-framing restricted/repetitive behaviors and specific interests” shared directly from individuals with autistic and the benefit of their repetitive behaviors and special interests.

For a long time, behaviors like hand flapping, pacing, or intense interests were seen as something to stop. But research, and autistic voices, tell us something important: These behaviors are often helpful, not harmful.

Not all behaviors need to be “fixed.” Sometimes, they’re exactly what helps a child feel safe, calm, and understood.

On World Autism Day, we celebrate every unique voice, spoken or unspoken💙

Autism acceptance means understanding, embracing & celebrating our unique ways of thinking and our strengths not just our struggles.

Although being autistic may bring challenges, we also have many positives that aren’t spoken about as much.

Every experience is different and autism is a spectrum so these may not relate to everyone.We all have individual skills, attributes & characteristics that are unique to us. That is the power of neurodiversity.

The best way to practice is through play!

Using Alphabet BINGO, we can target letter recognition through labeling and identifying letters, and saying the noun that’s associated with it🍎👩🏻‍🏫

Our lucky learners are targeting letters🍀

Letter Identification is the Foundation of Early Literacy and one of the first building blocks for reading and writing. It helps children recognize, name, and differentiate letters by both shape and sound.

✨Strong letter knowledge supports reading, spelling, and overall language development.

💡 Early exposure + playful practice = confident readers!

New theoretical research on Gestalt Language Processing (GLP) was just published offering some thoughtful insights!

For gestalt language processors, language development is often described as whole-to-part. From this perspective, gestalts aren’t barriers to “real language”—they are the language. This aligns with the Meaningful Speech framework many clinicians use to understand and support GLP development.

❄️Snow days aren’t just for hot cocoa, they’re great for building speech and language skills!

From sledding and snow angels to helping make hot cocoa, it’s an opportunity to expand vocabulary, practice building sentences, follow directions, and build social skills☃️

Pro tip: narrate, ask questions, model language, and let your child lead the fun. Just snow, play, and conversation!🤍

How are you spending your snow day?
