Ontario Special Needs Roadmap for School has a great Facebook page, that covers a lot of different special needs struggles, challenges, and some tips to help support. I really like a lot of there visuals, and have posted 3 in particular that have been shared the past week or so. Have a look, and print off what is useful for you. The use of graphic organizers/maps has always been a great resource, and one we have used consistently throughout the years for a variety of topics and needs. This one is specific to Anger, but really helps to facilitate discussions and create a plan.
There is one on Body Safety Rules, and discussing what my body is and rules around being safe, and finally a great one on how to ask questions, that may evoke more conversation with your kids about their day at school. I often use some of these, or ask them to tell me 3 things- 3 good or bad things about the day, and 3 things about their buddies..often leads to a story, that tells you more about what happened during the day, verses the classic " how was your day?" and usually get more than one word responses..
