GETCA 2025

Drawing on our extensive experience and the latest research in neuroscience and education, we will explore the impact of FASD and provide actionable strategies that educators can immediately implement in their classrooms. Our interactive session will present evidence-based strategies tailored to address the unique needs of our learners with FASD during critical transition periods, such as moving between activities, grade levels, or school environments. You will discover practical tools and techniques, including: 1. Personalized Transition Plans: Learn how to craft individualized plans that address specific challenges and strengths, facilitating smoother transitions and reducing anxiety. 2. Visual Supports and Schedules: Explore the use of visual cues and structured schedules that help students understand and anticipate transitions, fostering a sense of security and predictability. 3. Collaborative Strategies: Engage in discussions on fostering collaboration among educators, specialists, and families to create a cohesive support network that promotes successful transitions both in and out of the classroom. 4. Mindfulness and Self-Regulation Techniques: Discover how incorporating mindfulness practices can empower students to manage stress and build resilience during challenging transitions. Join us for this engaging session and become a catalyst for change in supporting our students with FASD!
