⏰ 7.00pm – 8.00pm
πŸ’» Online via Zoom

πŸ‘©β€πŸ« For Primary Teachers & SNAs

Are you supporting autistic children who learn language through Gestalt Language Processing (GLP)?

Join Speech and Language Therapist Jessica McGrath for this practical webinar exploring how Gestalt Language Processors acquire language and why they may access reading and writing differently from analytic language learners.

The session will explore a whole-to-part, meaning-first approach to literacy, with practical strategies that can be easily incorporated into a busy classroom.

✨ Topics will include:
πŸ”Ή Personalised books and shared reading
πŸ”Ή Using captions, songs and everyday print
πŸ”Ή Incorporating AAC into literacy development
πŸ”Ή Neuro-affirming, child-led approaches
πŸ”Ή Low-prep, low-cost strategies for building literacy throughout the school day

Participants will leave with a practical toolkit of ideas and greater confidence in supporting GLPs to develop as readers and writers in ways that honour how they naturally learn.

🎀 Presenter: Jessica McGrath

Jessica is a qualified Speech and Language Therapist specialising in neuro-affirming, child-led and play-based approaches. Her work has a particular focus on autistic communication, Gestalt Language Processing and AAC.

🌟 A practical and highly relevant session for anyone supporting Gestalt Language Processors in the primary school setting.
