SUMMARY:Artist in Residence: Erin Beser\, Founder & CEO of ADoughMa
DESCRIPTION:How can we create Jewish learning environments where every child’s unique ways of thinking\, communicating\, sensing\, and engaging are welcomed and valued? Join Artist in Residence\, Erin Beser\, Founder and CEO of ADoughMa for an engaging\, practical workshop exploring research-informed strategies to support diverse learners and create classrooms where all children can participate\, connect\, and thrive.\nTogether\, we’ll explore sensory experiences\, understand what children’s behaviors may be communicating\, and build on each child’s strengths\, interests\, and individual ways of learning. We’ll also consider how to make Jewish experiences—from the rhythms and rituals of Shabbat to the storytelling\, sensory exploration\, and traditions of Passover—accessible\, meaningful\, and joyful for every learner.\nTopics include:\n• Understanding sensory processing and supporting individual sensory needs\n• Developing strength-based\, individualized approaches to support children\n• Supporting social communication and pragmatic language\n• Creating flexible\, inclusive Jewish learning experiences that honor different ways of participating and connecting\nWalk away with practical tools\, fresh perspectives\, and new ways to celebrate neurodiversity while nurturing belonging\, connection\, and Jewish joy in your classroom.

SUMMARY:Artist in Residence: Erin Beser\, Founder & CEO of ADoughMa
DESCRIPTION:How can we create Jewish learning environments where every child’s unique ways of thinking\, communicating\, sensing\, and engaging are welcomed and valued? Join Artist in Residence\, Erin Beser\, Founder and CEO of ADoughMa for an engaging\, practical workshop exploring research-informed strategies to support diverse learners and create classrooms where all children can participate\, connect\, and thrive.\nTogether\, we’ll explore sensory experiences\, understand what children’s behaviors may be communicating\, and build on each child’s strengths\, interests\, and individual ways of learning. We’ll also consider how to make Jewish experiences—from the rhythms and rituals of Shabbat to the storytelling\, sensory exploration\, and traditions of Passover—accessible\, meaningful\, and joyful for every learner.\nTopics include:\n• Understanding sensory processing and supporting individual sensory needs\n• Developing strength-based\, individualized approaches to support children\n• Supporting social communication and pragmatic language\n• Creating flexible\, inclusive Jewish learning experiences that honor different ways of participating and connecting\nWalk away with practical tools\, fresh perspectives\, and new ways to celebrate neurodiversity while nurturing belonging\, connection\, and Jewish joy in your classroom.
