Teacher Appreciation Week

Autism Teaching Strategies, Family & Caregiver Support for Autistic Individuals, Professional Development & Autism Classroom Setup

I know how hard you work every day. I know how much you worry. I know how teaching has become more demanding over the years. I feel you. I admire you. I appreciate you.

As a small token of my appreciation for everything you do on a daily basis, I'll be posting some free resources here for you this week. Check back often!

Create a Circle Time That Feels Safe, Structured, and Engaging

If circle time has been sitting on your “I know this needs to feel better” list, this is the easiest place to start. This quick, practical guide walks you through 5 simple shifts that help circle time feel more predictable, engaging, and supportive for autistic students with high support needs—without forcing long group times, adding pressure, or expecting students to participate in one “right” way.

You’ll learn how to start small, use visuals, support regulation, build in interaction, and create a circle time routine that grows with your students over time.

Download the guide and start with one small shift that makes tomorrow’s circle time feel easier.
