Strategies for Teachers and Transitioning

Transitioning children with neurodiversity successfully is an important part of a child’s education.

Transitioning children with neurodiversity successfully is an important part of a child’s education. With the right strategies for teachers and parents, children can transition from one school to another, or from preschool to school, with ease. Parents, teachers, and aides can work together to create a successful transition plan, using transition cheat sheets, self advocacy, and calming strategies. Knowing 10 things about the child, as well as any sensory issues, can help teachers create a supportive environment for the child. Here are five tips for teachers to help children transition successfully:

1. Create a transition plan with the help of parents, teachers, and aides.
2. Use transition cheat sheets to provide key information about the child.
3. Encourage self advocacy by having the child share their needs and feelings.
4. Be aware of any sensory issues the child may have.
