| #OTalk @OTalk_ The first rule of #otalk: always use the hashtag, or you’ll end up on [REDACTED USER]’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 [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Brilliant! Welcome to #otalk :) don’t forget to include the hashtag in your tweets so everyone can see them |
 | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Hello gang! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Hi Janice, good to have you here! Please use the #otalk hashtag so everyone can see your contributions:) |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Hellooo 👋 #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @eveleenpower [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Hi eveleen, welcome! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @BillWongOT Hi Bill! It’s great to have you here #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] 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_ [REDACTED USER] 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 |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Welcome, Lucy! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] In US, it is popular. We often have some licensing exam questions for school based practice. #otalk |
| @OccScienceBae @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Here and lurking 😆 #OTalk | |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @OccScienceBae [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Glad to have you here with us :) feel free to join in if the moment takes you! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] 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 [REDACTED USER] 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 [REDACTED USER] 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 @JHedgesStearn [REDACTED USER] At clinic based setting, sometimes I also see feeding being addressed, especially for picky eaters. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Better late than never! :) glad you could join us #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] 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 [REDACTED USER] 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 [REDACTED USER] 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 [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] 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 [REDACTED USER] Well- sometimes, but that is the job of activities directors in my setting in US. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ In US, speech therapist does help sometimes. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] https://t.co/529NSQERbf This is a preschool play scale for children. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @JHedgesStearn [REDACTED USER] 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 [REDACTED USER] @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/S9Sm1pe96R |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #otalk https://t.co/2kd7Z1e8JJ |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] @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 [REDACTED USER] 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 [REDACTED USER] 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 [REDACTED USER] 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 [REDACTED USER] for hosting and to everyone who joined in |
