| #OTalk @OTalk_ The first rule of #otalk: always use the hashtag, or you’ll end up on @GeekyOT’s naughty step (There’s only one ‘T’ in OTalk) |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @JHedgesStearn Glad you made it!! How’s your garden faring in this heat? #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @JHedgesStearn @GeekyOT @colourful_ot Brilliant! Welcome to #otalk :) don’t forget to include the hashtag in your tweets so everyone can see them |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ @joannasmithOT @GeekyOT @colourful_ot Hellooo 👋 #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @eveleenpower @GeekyOT @colourful_ot Hi eveleen, welcome! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @BillWongOT Hi Bill! It’s great to have you here #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot When I was in my first job, I definitely had seen a goal like that in the school setting portion of it. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @JHedgesStearn Wilting is a great description - matches how I feel perfectly (but sorry about your garden!) #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @JHedgesStearn @OTalk_ Weather here in Los Angeles is pretty close to 40 today. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @LelanieBrewer Lekker to have you here :) welcome #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTalk_ @JHedgesStearn My parents’ house garden also had some suffering from our own heat wave a few weeks ago. We had blackout for almost 24 hours. 5 koi’s at the pond passed away as a result. Was quite a labor to dig them out. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @JHedgesStearn: |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @Lucygordon83 @GeekyOT @colourful_ot Welcome, Lucy! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot In US, it is popular. We often have some licensing exam questions for school based practice. #otalk |
 | Khalilah R. Johnson, PhD, OTR/L @OccScienceBae @OTalk_ @GeekyOT @colourful_ot Here and lurking 😆 #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @OccScienceBae @GeekyOT @colourful_ot Glad to have you here with us :) feel free to join in if the moment takes you! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot I think it can help lots of children to help them be more engaged in their environments more positively. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @LelanieBrewer: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot In school based in US, handwriting is pretty common. Some school based OT’s will attend workshops on Handwriting Without Tears program. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot I think it depends on each child. In US, until age 14 at minimum, plans are basically collaboration between parents, therapists, and/or school staff. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @JHedgesStearn: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @JHedgesStearn @colourful_ot At clinic based setting, sometimes I also see feeding being addressed, especially for picky eaters. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @mollharrisOT @colourful_ot Better late than never! :) glad you could join us #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @JHedgesStearn: |
 | Charlotte Betteridge @CharlOTte_Paeds @colourful_ot @OTalk_ I work on an acute paeds oncology unit and we definitely prioritise play and meaningful activities, all based around patient led goal setting, even if it is getting to the local paperchase shop 🙌 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mollharrisOT @colourful_ot I think it is important to parents because many may view being mainstreamed is an important goal for their kids to accomplish. Kids- may not see it that way. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot Since recess is an important time of day for children in school, I will say yes... and that can be a natural setting for observations and assessments. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @JHedgesStearn @colourful_ot Not any more because I work with the elderly. But I have seen that addressed a few times in my placement and my first job. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @mollharrisOT: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mollharrisOT @colourful_ot And in retrospect, I feel that if I were in specialized school as a kiddo, I don’t think I will be talking to you guys today. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @JHedgesStearn @colourful_ot Well- sometimes, but that is the job of activities directors in my setting in US. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot @SammyRandallOT @OTalk_ In US, speech therapist does help sometimes. #otalk |
| Charlotte Betteridge @CharlOTte_Paeds RT @LelanieBrewer: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot @mollharrisOT https://t.co/529NSQERbf This is a preschool play scale for children. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @JHedgesStearn @colourful_ot I don’t think so because we still have PE in secondary school... and play is often still important there. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot @MarieAskew_OT Or when I was young... sometimes NOT playing is better. But then you have to find out the reasons why in terms of lack of engagement. #otalk |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ #otalk https://t.co/2kd7Z1e8JJ |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot @MarieAskew_OT And also underlying factors. Is it because of social anxiety? Is it because of being bullied in the past? Is it because of sensory environment at playground? #otalk |
 | Debra Hughes @Debraj_OT @OTalk_ i have had trouble with my internet, i will try and catch up when it lets me lol #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot If the children are able to communicate, absolutely! I think they can tell you honestly about how they felt and perceived. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @Debraj_OT Sorry to hear that! Feel free to add to the chat later, we grab the transcript after 24hrs #otalk |
| Debra Hughes @Debraj_OT @OTalk_ thank you, i will its intermittent and annoying lol #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @LelanieBrewer: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @LelanieBrewer I know I wrote in an upcoming AOTA book on autism about conversations between my mom and I about baseball and golf. I highlighted that sometimes it may not be the child’s abilities to play, it can be the parents’ abilities and knowledge to facilitate play, too. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @JHedgesStearn: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot And sometimes reflecting on my own experiences, parents should make attempts to help facilitate play, not deter play. Like when I attempted to play catch with my dad in US, me having to nibble the ball to him did me no favors to inspire confidence. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ That’s officially the end of tonight’s #otalk but please do continue the conversations - we grab the transcript after 24 hours. Massive thank you to @colourful_ot for hosting and to everyone who joined in |
