![Heading back to school after March Break can be tough, especially for kids with ADHD or autism 💛
Here are some simple ways to ease the transition:
✨ Start shifting routines a few days early (sleep, meals, screen time)
✨ Preview the return to school. Talk through what the first day will look like
✨ Use visuals or schedules to bring back predictability
✨ Keep expectations realistic. It may take a few days to settle back in
✨ Build in extra downtime after school to recharge
✨ Validate feelings. Transitions can feel hard, even if they’re expected
Transitions aren’t just about going back. They’re about helping your child feel safe, prepared, and supported through the change.

![Many parents picture a psychoeducational assessment as a child sitting at a table doing a bunch of writing tasks.
But there’s so much more happening behind the scenes.
A school psychologist is looking at how a child learns, not just what they know. This can include things like:
🧠 attention
📚 language based memory
🗣️ language based problem solving
👀 visual based memory
✏️nonverbal problem-solving
💬 processing speed… and more!
The goal is to better understand their strengths, challenges, and what supports might help them thrive at school.
When we understand how a child’s brain learns, we can advocate for the supports they need to succeed.

![5 things we expect from kindergarteners that may not be developmentally appropriate 👀
Kindergarten expectations have shifted a lot over the years but child development has not changed.
Many children are still developing the motor, attention, and regulation skills needed for some of the expectations we see in early classrooms today.
Struggling with these skills does not mean a child is “behind.” It often means they are developing exactly as expected. What do we often expect that we shouldn’t?
1️⃣ Sit still for long periods
Many 4 to 5 year olds still need frequent movement and sensory input to stay regulated and attentive.
2️⃣ Write letters neatly and independently
Fine motor skills are still developing. Many kinders are still learning how to control pencils and form letters.
3️⃣ Sustain attention for long academic tasks
Young children learn best through play, movement, and short bursts of engagement.
4️⃣ Manage big emotions independently
Self regulation skills are still emerging. Co regulation with adults is developmentally appropriate.
5️⃣ Follow complex multi step instructions every time
Executive functioning skills such as working memory, planning, and sequencing are still developing at this age.
When we understand development, we can support children in ways that actually help them grow.
Which one surprises you most?
