23.01.2022 So Very True !!

23.01.2022 Today is #AutismAwarenessDay. At the age of 12 I was diagnosed with Asperger, a form of autism. At that time I had no idea what it meant. When I and my parent...s told people I was autistic, they always reacted with shock since I didn’t fit into the stereotype of autistic people. Today, so many (especially girls) remain undiagnosed. The reasons for that are often lack of awareness, prejudices and the fact that many still see autism as a disease or something that has to hold you back. That more people are diagnosed with autism etc isn’t because there is an inflation in diagnoses but since awareness is increasing and many highly sensitive people experience stress related problems in modern society which gives them reason to suspect they’re on the spectrum. Almost everywhere there are very limited resources to give autistic people the necessary support. Without these adjustments autism can turn into a disability. But under the right circumstances it can truly be a gift and turn into something you - and society - can benefit from. Sadly, today the level of awareness is so low. So many go undiagnosed and will therefore not receive the help they need and may go their whole life believing something is wrong with them. So let’s all join in spreading awareness. It could literally save lives. Autism is not a disease. It’s not something you have. It’s definitely not caused by anything like vaccine or diet. It simply means that you are a bit different from everyone else. And in a world where everyone strives to act, think and look the same - being different is truly something to be proud of. Thats why I’m very proud to be autistic. #AutisticAndProud #AspiePower #ActuallyAutistic

18.01.2022 Hi, my name is Penn and ADHD is my superpower.

16.01.2022 Catholic schools move away from whole language-based teaching in switch to phonics. Catholic schools across Canberra and southern NSW will implement evidence...-backed phonics teaching from next year as part of a system-wide push to improve students’ literacy outcomes. In a shift away from whole language-based approaches favoured across the sector, Canberra Goulburn Catholic Education has introduced a new policy on reading instruction, which will require all primary schools to introduce a systematic synthetic phonics approach to ensure children are explicitly taught how to read. Systematic synthetic phonics, also known as blended phonics, involves teaching students to pronounce the sounds associated with letters in isolation before being taught to combine the sounds to form words. It has a growing body of evidence pointing to it being the most effective method for teaching children how to read. The push, which is the first initiative of the archdiocese broader Catalyst program aimed at improving teaching and learning, comes after a review at the end of 2019 found an unacceptably high proportion of students were struggling with reading. Catholic Education Canberra Goulburn director Ross Fox said data provided by about 40 schools revealed that one third of kindergarten students were below the expected benchmark for reading, while almost half of Year 1 students did not meet the benchmark. The situation was worse in Year 2, Mr Fox said, with 62 per cent of students falling short of the independent reader benchmark.

Helping our children master the skill of reading is an absolute fundamental role of primary school education. So as part of this overhaul we’ve set a goal of having every one of our 21,000 students become a competent reader for their age level. Mr Fox said the new policy was heavily influenced by a theory known as the simple view of reading, which proposes that reading comprehension depends on a student’s ability to sound out the words and their understanding of the meaning of those words. Despite significant empirical evidence supporting the simple view of reading and importance of decoding skills, many schools continue to favour whole language-derived balanced literacy teaching, which preferences word memorisation and guessing strategies over phonics skills. As part of the push, about 200 teachers across the Canberra Goulburn region are undergoing professional training covering the key reading areas of phonics, phonemic awareness, vocabulary, fluency and reading comprehension. Primary schools within the archdiocese will also join NSW state schools in participating in the annual Year 1 phonics screening check, after taking part in the pilot program this year. Mr Fox said most schools and teachers enthusiastically supported the plan. However, he said there was some scepticism, which was understandable when asking teachers to make a significant change. A number of other diocese are interested in what we’re doing and watching closely, he said. We think we are doing the right thing. St Bernard’s Primary School at Bateman’s Bay has had a head start in implementing systematic phonics teaching and principal Jo Wain said it had vastly improved students’ outcomes. Three years ago, almost half of the kindergarten class were performing below benchmark. Now 85 per cent are above. It has been fantastic to be supported in this way and have all the teachers learning this approach together so we can build the knowledge of evidence-based reading instruction, said principal Jo Wain. We are working as a team across the school to improve the reading standards all our students achieve. https://www.theaustralian.com.au//95415ff572b9c90f3e9eb1e5

13.01.2022 Happy Monday Morning... I hope the week ahead is set to be a good one. Here is another great FREE Executive Function download from Understood. This is great f...or parents and teachers alike. It is well laid out and an easy read. https://www.understood.org//040bfb1894284d019bf78ac01a5f15

07.01.2022 Here’s an easy exercise to help children lower their stress levels while stuck inside. Let your child lie on their back and put a stuffed animal on their bell...y. Have them breathe in and move the stuffed animal up, then breathe out and bring the stuffed animal back down. This helps teach children to use their belly to take big deep breaths.
