Lesson Plan

Neurodiversity Awareness

Students will discover the uniqueness of every brain and recognize strengths brought by neurodiverse peers (ADHD, autism, dyslexia) to foster empathy and inclusion.

Understanding neurodiversity builds an inclusive classroom where all students feel valued, respected, and empowered by each other’s strengths.
