Warm Feedback 

 I loved the course! Lots of really good information that can be applied right away. I specifically loved the Social Stories assignment. I have already used the one I created, plan to create more and will be working with my team to implement them across the elementary division.

I appreciate the fast responses to my questions and the educational videos which were short but very rich with information that help us a lot. The aspects of the course I really enjoyed were Ecomap, Social Skills Observations, and Learning Barriers assignments.

The Supporting Whole Child Course unexpectedly opened my eyes how much is here to learn about emotional and social skills learning and how I was not prepared for it during the study at university. I am also glad to find out how student goals set in IEP can be tracked more effectively and proactively. And the final piece to compose own social story - I really enjoyed that creative part.
