This episode focuses on the challenges neurodivergent students face during transitions between activities. It highlights the science behind these difficulties, linking them to executive dysfunction, sensory processing, and dopamine regulation.
The episode then provides educators and caregivers with practical tools and strategies to ease transitions, such as using visual schedules, timers, and predictable routines. Specific advice is offered for both school and home environments, covering areas like morning routines, homework, and mealtimes. The podcast emphasizes supporting emotional regulation by acknowledging feelings and teaching self-regulation techniques.
Ultimately, the goal is to create predictable and supportive environments that enable neurodivergent students to navigate transitions with greater confidence.
