This isn’t all inclusive, but it may help you weed out what you don’t want.

if you’re an adult that works with kids of any age do me two quick favors:

learn the symptoms of adhd and autism and their presentation in all genders. you dont have to be an expert, just know a bit about it beyond popular knowledge.

learn to recognize signs a kid is being abused in any way. beyond bruises and black eyes. learn to recognize the fearful apologies and hesitation. do some research.

do me these two favors and save tens of lives.

that’s no exageration either. after teaching my mom basics about mental disorders, she started spotting neurodivergent kids in her classrooms and helped them get help. almost every child she’s helped has been diagnosed with the disorder she predicted and none of them would have been diagnosed at a young age without her help. knowing this stuff matters.

learn. save lives. don’t make kids grow up in fear of their symptoms and family.

For Those With No Time to Tweet

If you are like me, you are running through the day with minimal to no “me time.” Bathroom break? I remember what those used to feel like? Last week I did not get to go to the bathroom from 7am until 7:30pm. My doctor wouldn’t be too happy, say the least.

Speaking of her, last time I went to the doctors office she said, “Do you do any physical activity?” I said, “I never sit from the time I wake up until the time I went to bed, I walk all day.” And she promptly spoke into her Dragon talk-to-text machine, “Patient does not have an exercise routine.” Thanks.

You know how this feels. No matter if you are a school-based SLP, a hospital inpatient SLP, or work at a SNF...you barely have time to care for yourself while you are caring for everyone else. Those who need your attention most are getting what they deserve. You listen all day, and are sometimes that persons best conversation partner. It is a job we cherish and a job we love.

With that being said, let’s make life a little easier, eh? I’m new here, just getting used to this idea of a blog. So how about we be friends? Here is a link to my handmade weekly schedule template. (https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/A-peek-at-my-week-2900766) It’s blank, cause you don’t want to inherit my schedule at all. Fill yours with all your daily and weekly tasks and notes.

Also, find me on twitter, Instagram and Teachers Pay Teachers. Find me with the handle PurrrfectSpeech or at this link to TPT: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Purrrfect-Speech

I look forward to seeing what kind of friendship we build here! Have a Purrrfect day!
