In this session, teachers will be shown various strategies to personalise learning for students with special educational needs. Teachers will be learning strategies on how to incorporate assistive technology to enhance student engagement and comprehension in Mathematics such as using the app Proloquo2go. Additionally, using tools like video modelling provide visual and auditory reinforcement of routines, making abstract concepts more concrete. Teachers will learn on using visual supports like Colourful Semantics which can help students understand mathematical language with more ease, including those who are non-verbal. Teachers will also understand the importance of a collaborative approach, involving speech therapists, educational professionals, and parents to create a supportive and responsive learning environment. Participants will walk away from this session with a practical understanding of the supports required to effectively scaffold the learning of students with special needs in Numeracy.

Key takeaways:
1. Making learning more personalised for students with diverse learning needs 
2. Using technology and visuals as a support in mathematics, e.g. video modelling, Colourful Semantics and social stories
3. Learning how to implement practical and real-life lessons in the community
