February 24, 2013 - 2 Great Days!

Katie arrived on Wednesday the 20th and we've had a whirl-wind visit! 

On Thursday, we presented 2 half-day Advanced sessions at NCCSE.  They were both filled with rich-discussion regarding "Self & Match" systems that are currently in place through-out San Diego County.  In collaboration with our participants, we brainstormed ways to optimize the systems that are already in place.

On Saturday, Katie and Jamie presented at the California ABA Western Regional Conference.  What a great bunch of educators we had fill the room.  Had a great day and received very nice feedback.  Testimonials to be posted on our website soon!

October 16, 2012 - October Recap

We've had an amazing 4 days with Katie and family in town...

On Monday, we presented a 6-hour workshop to 42 educators throughout San Diego County.  The room was filled with public and nonpublic school employees -- teachers, school psychologists,  behavior specialists, and more. It was a very well-received session and we received wonderful feedback.

On Tuesday, our 3-hour Advanced session was directed toward educators that have been using "Self & Match" for 10 or more months.  We had a rich brainstorming discussion and shared with the participants our new "Considerations DURING Implementation" Worksheet. 

After the Advanced session, Katie and Jamie stopped for a quick lunch with an ocean view ("When in Rome...") and then spent the afternoon at North County Academy (NCA).  As described in our June 12 post (http://selfandmatch.blogspot.com/2012/06/june-12-2012.html), NCA uses "Self & Match" as a school-wide intervention for their 6th grade through 12th grade students.  We were truly impressed with the consideration, planning, and innovation NCA has implemented.

On a personal note, it's always a blast getting our kids together.  Needless to say, they loved visiting Bates Nut Farm!
