SUMMARY:Compensatory Services Big Questions for Students with Disabilities During COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:During this national emergency\, schools must prioritize\, above all else\, the safety of students\, staff\, and communities. Consistent with this priority\, schools are still obligated to provide a student with a free and appropriate public education. \nIf a child did or did not receive services during a closure\, a child’s IEP team (or appropriate personnel under Section 504) must therefore make an individualized determination whether and to what extent compensatory education services may be needed as a result of COVID-related disruptions to the provision of FAPE.  This presentation will include perspectives from both parents and school districts\, as well as an overview of the Due Process laws and techniques for parents to monitor academic and IEP goal progress.  This presentation is for parents\, professionals and providers who want to learn to what extent compensatory education services may be needed this Fall and how to advocate for it. \nPRESENTERS: \nChristen Smith\, Staff Attorney\, Legal Aid Society of Northeastern NY \nTina Beauparlant\, Reginal Program Manager/Education Specialist\, Parent to Parent of NYS \nErin Hill\, Director of Special Programs\, Cohoes City School District \nRegistration details:  http://parenttoparentnys.org/images/uploads/pdfs/September_2020_Flyer_-_Compensatory_Services_(1)1.docx \nhttp://parenttoparentnys.org/images/uploads/pdfs/September_2020_Flyer_-_Compensatory_Services1.pdf

SUMMARY:The Role of Neurotransmitters in GI Disorders Related to Autism
DESCRIPTION:Tune in to learn about research exploring the role enteric neurotransmitters\, specifically serotonin and oxytocin\, play in enteric nervous system (ENS) development and how\, when signaling of either of these neurotransmitters is abnormal\, it can result in intestinal inflammation and/or motility dysfunction. \nRegister:  https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/944629322134593803 \nAbout the Speaker:  Kara Gross Margolis\, MD is an Associate Professor of Pediatrics and a pediatric gastroenterologist with a clinical expertise in brain-gut axis disorders\, and particularly autism spectrum disorders (ASD).  She has published highly novel observations on the roles that enteric neurotransmitters\, specifically serotonin and oxytocin\, play in enteric nervous system (ENS) development and how\, when signaling of either of these neurotransmitters is abnormal\, result in intestinal inflammation and/or motility dysfunction.  She has more recently leveraged her expertise to study disorders of the brain-gut axis from the perspective of the ENS.  Her studies in this area thus far have focused on two disorders that have been classically thought of as central nervous system (CNS)-centric\, ASD and developmental antidepressant (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor; SSRI) exposure.  Her overall goals are to pursue translational research that interrogates basic mechanisms underlying important clinical conditions\, in order to utilize this knowledge to develop novel therapeutic strategies.

SUMMARY:Live Webinar on September 1: “My Child’s Handwriting Is So Messy!” Strategies for Improving Dysgraphia in Children with ADHD
DESCRIPTION:Dysgraphia is a learning disability that affects the ability of a child\, teen\, or adult to express their thoughts on paper and on screen. It affects 20% to 60% of people with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). In addition to impairing handwriting and keyboarding\, dysgraphia interferes with academic achievement and self-esteem. In other words\, it is much more than messy writing. \nDysgraphia varies in its symptoms and severity\, and can be easy to miss in kids\, particularly in mild cases. If your child has dysgraphia\, they may struggle with more than just writing — they might also find it hard to tie shoelaces\, for example. Because children with dysgraphia are often skilled at reading or at expanding on a topic verbally\, their struggles with writing may be blamed on “laziness” or “carelessness.” Like other learning disabilities\, dysgraphia is genetic and often runs in families. \nOccupational therapist and best-selling author Lindsey Biel explains why children can’t always show what they know on paper\, and provides practical sensory-smart strategies that can help them do that. \nIn this webinar\, you will learn: \n\nWhy handwriting requires much more than fine motor skills\nFun activities that build underlying\, foundational skills\nPractical ways to enhance attention and reduce conflicting sensory input\nMultisensory strategies that helps kids with ADHD enjoy writing\nTips and tools for handwriting and keyboarding\n\nCertificate of Attendance: For information on how to purchase the certificate of attendance option\, register for the webinar\, then look for instructions in the email you’ll receive around 45 minutes after it ends. The certificate of attendance link will also be available here\, on the webinar replay page\, several hours after the live webinar. ADDitude does not offer CEU credits. \nHave a question for our expert? There will be an opportunity to post questions for the presenter during the live webinar. \nMeet the Expert Speaker \nLindsey Biel\, M.A.\, OTR/L\, is a pediatric occupational therapist with a private practice in New York City where she evaluates and treats children\, adolescents\, and young adults with sensory processing issues\, developmental delays\, autism spectrum disorders\, and other challenges. With the COVID-19 pandemic\, she now offers teletherapy to families and schools nationwide. \nLindsey is co-author of the award-winning Raising a Sensory Smart Child: The Definitive Handbook for Helping Your Child with Sensory Processing Issues\, with a foreword by Temple Grandin.  She is also the author of Sensory Processing Challenges: Effective Clinical Work with Kids & Teens and has authored two chapters in Dr. William Steele’s book Optimizing Learning Outcomes as well as contributed to the all-new edition of Kim West’s classic Good Night\, Sleep Tight. \nRegister for this free expert webinar to learn strategies for improving dysgraphia in children with ADHD on Tuesday\, September 1 at 1 pm ET.  https://goto.webcasts.com/starthere.jsp?ei=1346109&tp_key=3b93776813Sign up and you will receive the free webinar replay link after 9/1 as well!  Not available September 1?
