Virtual Conference

Cracking the Code: Helping Neurodiverse Students Thrive

Grounded in neuroscience, join us in Cracking The Code with clinical psychologist Dr. Matt Zakreski. Starting the day with addressing how our brains impact thoughts, feelings and behaviours through a humorous and clinical approach, we will learn how to address the common challenges of being gifted and neurodivergent in personal and social domains. In the afternoon, the SAGE-BC Executive team of teachers will share strategies and ideas to be used in the classroom for all. Cracking the Code will challenge you to think critically about working and engaging with neurodivergent individuals in ways that will help them thrive.

Registration will open in August, and an Early Bird Discount will be available for a limited time. Stay tuned for more details! We hope to see at the conference!

I learned that: Imagination can and should be cultivated; Blooms Taxonomy and cognitive thinking tools are needed; how to use question stems with mild, medium and spicy questions. I want to try using vertical work spaces and how they make all learners visible in the learning process.

I liked how although it was geared towards students who are gifted, these strategies can be implemented with all students.  I'll definitely be trying some ideas out.
