Activity ideas

Use short, low-pressure activities such as visual check-ins, choice-based discussions, scenario cards, and a personal “what helps me learn” worksheet. Interactive, practical methods are commonly used in neurodiversity training because they make content easier to access and apply.

Suits individual's needs

Keep instructions brief, provide visual supports, offer movement or quiet breaks, and let participants choose how to respond verbally, in writing, or with visuals. A calm, predictable structure and strengths-based language are repeatedly emphasised in inclusive neurodiversity programs.
