💭 QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Q:What's the best way to transition a student who hates changes?

A: Think like a movie trailer and give them previews of what's coming. Use visual schedules, countdown timers, and transition warnings. The key is making the unknown feel predictable. Some kids need a 10-minute warning, others need to know what's happening next Tuesday. Honor their need for information
