I'm back from a brief hiatus because life's hard. I wanted to finally get up and talk about this. This is my attempt at being honest and vulnerable with Autistic diagnosis and experience in education. I feel like there's not enough conversation in the educational community about neurodivergent teachers, so let's get into it. Part one of money, I'm sure.

I've been hyping this one up for a while I feel like: What messages are you sending to students through the you create and collate their learning experiences? Answering that question is the answer to understanding what is your class' "Hidden Curriculum."

Here are links to my curriculum project (without all the gatekept materials I created my blog, and a copy of a presentation I did about how I designed my own SEL curriculum (maybe I should have said something about that?).

I listened to an episode of Cult of Pedagogy that had me up on my own soapbox about the things I have been trying to advocate for in these 10 years of teaching: the need for a cultural adjustment to more restorative practices in education.

What do these look like?

What do for students?

What gets in the way?

What are the impacts?

As someone who has been practicing these after many trainings, degrees, and real classroom practices, here are my thoughts on this episode and, in a much larger scope, restorative practices as a whole.

Here are my notes on the podcast that I walk through in this episode.
