Date: 17.05.25 Join Saad Ahmed for Tuesday's show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: ‘Learning Disabilities and Gaza: Livestream of a Genocide.' Learning Disabilities  Join us as we learn more about learning disability week and discuss the barriers that different people may face in their everyday lives. Gaza: Livestream of  a Genocide  Gaza is being described as a “live-streamed genocide,” with social media revealing in real time the horrors of mass death, hunger, and displacement—yet the world remains largely silent. We look at the collapse of healthcare, the strangling of aid, and the human cost of war—but also at the voices of young Gazans using social media to document survival and demand justice. Some of these voices, like 11-year-old Layan and blogger Medo Halimy, have already been silenced.

This week I'm joined by Dr Jan Eppingstall to talk about scaffolding - what it means, how it helps with hoarding recovery, and why our needs for support change over time. We break down practical, emotional, and motivational scaffolding, from therapy and peer support to self-made systems and the way we talk to ourselves. If you've ever wondered how to find the right kind of help without feeling stuck with it forever, this is the episode for you.

Origins in Lev Vygotsky's work: helping people accomplish tasks with support. Relevance to hoarding and recovery. Application of Scaffolding to Hoarding Recovery Psychological, cognitive, and emotional elements in hoarding. Physical and organisational skill deficits in people who hoard. Differences and interplay between psychological barriers and practical skills. Illustrating support levels: from high assistance to independence. Personal examples demonstrating that support needs can resurface over time. The Changing Nature of Scaffolding Scaffolding shifts in form and amount as people progress or encounter setbacks. Individualisation: What's supportive for one may not be for another. Types of Scaffolding for Hoarding Recovery External supports: therapists, peers, coaches. Direct instruction and physical assistance. Environmental modifications. Tools and resources. Social encouragement and accountability. Assessing current functioning. Matching support to challenge level (not too easy, not too hard). Gradually reducing support as independence grows. Scaffolding for Neurodivergent Individuals Adjustments for ADHD: Shorter work periods, built-in breaks. Accountability partners and visual reminders/checklists. Adjustments for Autism: Predictable routines. Clear rules and decision trees. Sensory-friendly environments. Executive Function Challenges and Tailored Scaffolding Strategies like breaking down decisions, using templates, "parking lot" systems for deferred decisions. Recognising that executive function can be context-specific and fluctuate. Importance of Emotional Scaffolding Emotional regulation during dehoarding. Need for self-soothing and distress-tolerance skills as support is reduced. Informal and Internal Scaffolding Peer support, self-talk, problem solving, reminders. Adapting systems in the home as a supportive structure. Habituation and Evolvement of Support Systems Reminder fatigue and strategies to combat it (rotating formats, colours, locations). The necessity for systems to evolve as needs and effectiveness change. Mindset Shifts and Realistic Expectations Acceptance that supports may need to be re-engaged during crises or setbacks. Not viewing return to scaffolding as failure - progress and healing aren't linear. Testing assumptions about personal limitations. Re-evaluating and Customising Support Creating, testing, and modifying practical systems in the home with or without outside perspective. Recognising the value of trying new strategies even if initial skepticism exists.

People with learning disabilities have a lower life expectancy than those without, Professor Carolyn Chew-Graham tells medical editor Dawn Liz Powell in this episode of the Clinical Update podcast. She adds that while this can relate to  comorbid physical conditions, it can also be because of health inequalities . ‘ Possibly they don't receive the same quality of care that the general population receives…. Or there's lack of coordination and integration of care', Professor Chew-Graham explains.As well as having poorer physical health than the general population, people with learning disabilities can also have poorer mental health. This can be because common mental health problems, such as anxiety and depression, can present differently in this population — making them difficult to diagnose and treat.Professor Chew-Graham, in this interview, outlines how GPs and other primary care professionals can support patients with learning disabilities, including ensuring information is presented in an accessible format and that the person has as much autonomy as possible.You can access the website version of this podcast on MIMS Learning to make notes for your appraisal.

If you've ever felt weighed down by depression, misunderstood because of a learning disability, or shaped by a painful past, this episode is for you.More info, resources & ways to connect - https://www.tacosfallapart.com/podcast-live-show/podcast-guests/puckIn this episode of Even Tacos Fall Apart, Puck joins MommaFoxFire for a raw and honest chat about living with depression, surviving abuse, navigating learning disabilities, and what it's like to come out the other side of some seriously tough times. Puck shares openly about his background - from childhood trauma to adult resilience - with humor, grit and a whole lot of heart.Puck's story starts with a rocky childhood marked by physical and sexual abuse, a chaotic home life, and school struggles tied to an undiagnosed learning disability. Things didn't get easier as a teen - he bounced between California and Minnesota, landing back with his dad after a stretch with his abusive stepfather. At 14, his mom sent him on a Greyhound with a bus ticket and $20. He wasn't even sure his dad would be there to meet him. (He was.)He ended up getting kicked out at 16 and spent years homeless. That part of his life was full of uncertainty - where to sleep, whether he'd eat, and if he could stay safe. He talked about meeting others in the same boat, finding community in unexpected places and how gaming became an escape and a safer option than getting into trouble on the streets.Puck was arrested multiple times, mostly for theft-related offenses tied to survival. One particular charge from decades ago still follows him around, even though he's completely turned his life around. He's worked hard to rebuild everything, and despite being blocked from some jobs due to that record, he's stayed focused on building a better future.Now in his 40s, Puck is a homeowner, husband, father of three and business owner. He runs Wild Coyote Design, selling custom stickers, mugs and other creations online. He talks about the highs and lows of Etsy, including ridiculous customer complaints and the time demands of handmade work.Mental health-wise, Puck lives with depression and struggles with focus and memory. He's tried meds in the past but found they made things worse. Therapy helped some, but it was hard to connect while carrying so much unspoken trauma. He still hasn't told his wife about everything, especially around the abuse he endured in childhood. Some of that pain still feels too heavy to speak out loud.Despite everything, Puck's proud of how far he's come, and he's brutally honest about the work it takes. He's committed to parenting his kids with more patience and care than he got growing up. He tries to give them the tools and love he didn't have.This conversation isn't sugar-coated. It's real, it's messy, and it's full of sharp edges - but it's also a reminder that survival isn't the end of the story. Puck's still standing, still creating and still trying. And in a world that often tries to break people down, that's a story worth hearing.

But… what if you saw that disability as a gift directing you to God's purpose for your life?   On today's podcast, Kendra Morgan, from our Tulsa, Oklahoma community, shares her story of struggling through school and the difficulties she faced in the classroom until one professor was determined to figure out how she learned best. The results of his testing were life-changing for Kendra and led her to God's vision for her life. This inspiring story will encourage you to know that God is indeed purposeful in your pain.    IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: - Sometimes, a learning disability just requires a shift in how you are taught.  - With the right tools, your brain can train itself in how it retains information.  - God can bring great vision to those who are seeking His calling.   Links:   Building All Children - Kendra's non-profit ministry   Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Kendra and our past storytellers.    Become a Patreon Insider to access bonus content.   Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series, including the newly released Discovering God in Stories of Faith!   Register for our online workshop being offered on May 6th: Finding God in the Details: A Guide to Discerning His Voice and Discovering Your Story

Joining us in S4 Episode 5 is Dr Catriona Stewart OBE MCPP where we explore Catriona's own late autism discovery, her lifetime of learning, and her lifetime of work - it's a deeply emotional episode.Catriona founded autistic-led charity SWAN: Scottish Women's Autism Network in 2012, on completion of her PhD research into the experiences of autistic girls, to provide peer support, build on the knowledge-base, and raise levels of understanding. Advisor to a number of high level national enquiries and campaigns, including the 3 year National Autism Project, and the 2 year Independent Review of the Mental Health Act (Scotland) in relation to Autism and Learning Disability, she ran an 18 month Employment Project for Scottish Government, and was an Ambassador to their Improving Understanding of Autism #DifferentMinds campaign, 2019-2023. She was a member of John (Lord) Scott KC's human-rights focused COVID-response Independent Advisory Group to the Scottish Police Authority (SPA) in 2020-21 and has since been a member of the SPA Board, where she is regarded as a Champion for Disability and the Neurominorities. She has delivered numerous papers and plenary presentations, training and workshops, in the UK and abroad. Most recent was the AETAPE bi-annual congress in Cadiz to which she presented on Independent Living for Autistic Adults, the barriers and enablers, from a Human Rights perspective. Her work is focused on community engagement, participatory action research, equality, diversity and inclusion, and Human Rights. It is informed by her research, her years of professional experience and her lived experience as a late-diagnosed autistic woman and mother.To Catriona and all the autistic women who have paved the way before us, the trailblazers who have prepared the ground in this new world for others to follow.

As educators, we are always looking for tools that can effectively support our students' writing development. Enter The Writing Revolution 2.0—a structured, research-based writing curriculum designed to help students master sentence formation, expository writing, and analytical thinking. But does it live up to its promise? In this post, we'll review the curriculum, explore its benefits and drawbacks, and determine whether it's the right fit for your classroom.What Is The Writing Revolution 2.0?The Writing Revolution is a method that teaches writing through explicit instruction, scaffolding, and structured literacy techniques. It is widely recognized for its evidence-based approach to improving student writing across all subjects, not just English Language Arts. The newest edition, Writing Revolution 2.0, refines its approach and expands on key instructional strategies.Key Features of The Writing Revolution 2.0Explicit Instruction – Writing is taught systematically, starting from sentences and progressing to paragraphs and essays.Cross-Disciplinary Application – This method can be used in various subjects, from science to social studies.Integrated Grammar Instruction – Instead of isolated grammar lessons, students learn grammar in the context of their writing.Assessment and Progress Monitoring – Built-in formative assessments allow teachers to track student progress.Professional Development – Extensive training and resources are available for teachers to implement the method effectively.Pros and Cons✅ Pros:Research-backed and evidence-basedWorks across multiple grade levelsEffective scaffolding for struggling learnersEncourages structured, clear writing❌ Cons:No creative writing componentRequires teacher training for full implementationSome activities may feel repetitive for advanced studentsBest suited for structured writing rather than exploratory writingWho Should Use This Curriculum?Teachers looking to improve students' structured writing skillsSchool administrators seeking a school-wide writing approachOccupational therapists collaborating with teachers on sentence-building strategiesFinal ThoughtsOverall, The Writing Revolution 2.0 is an excellent tool for educators who want a structured, systematic approach to writing instruction. While it lacks creative writing elements, its explicit focus on sentence and paragraph construction makes it invaluable for developing students' foundational writing skills. If you work in an environment that emphasizes expository writing, this curriculum could be a game-changer.Would you like more curriculum reviews like this?
