Self-Advocating Strategies and Supports

Only you are inside your head. 

In order for me to be able to help you if needed, you need to get what's inside your head out to me! 

 

It's ok not to know everything- no one expects you to. 

It's ok to be confused- becoming un-confused is actually how the brain learns! 

It's ok to be wrong and make mistakes- you just can't get stuck there. 

 

If you need help, please reach out to me by texting my Google Voice number (323- 790-6555 - I receive notifications on my phone and am most available this way) or sending me a message in Schoology (caution: I only check these during the school day). 

 

See the images below for different ways to state your needs- use them for support to word what you want to say!
