Why Teaching About Neurodiversity Benefits Every Student in Your Classroom
Check out this newly published blog post by our wonderful Ms. Ginna Daza.
Here’s a glimpse into this practical and empowering article.
When we teach about neurodiversity, we’re not only supporting neurodivergent students; we’re empowering all students to reflect on their own learning and the choices they have to access it.
Teaching students about neurodiversity isn’t just about raising awareness—it’s about fostering a culture of empathy, understanding, and inclusion. It’s about helping students see the “jaggedness” in themselves and others, recognizing that everyone has unique strengths and challenges. When we teach about neurodiversity, we’re not only supporting neurodivergent students; we’re empowering all students to reflect on their own learning and the choices they have to access it.
Thankful for Ginna and her experience and wisdom that contributes to the “jaggedness” in our community.
