Superhero Training
Welcome to the Neurodivergent Hero Academy
Every child has special abilities that make them unique, and at the Neurodivergent Hero Academy, we teach you how to harness those powers and use them to your advantage! Whether you have lightning-fast thinking, a super-detailed memory, or the ability to hyper-focus like a laser beam, you’re already a hero in training.
Discovery
Step 1
The first step is to identify your superpowers. Everyone has different abilities, and we’re going to figure out what yours are:
- ADHD Heroes: You have Super Speed Brain—your mind races fast, letting you think of ideas quickly, solve problems in a flash, and notice things others might miss. But like all superheroes, you need training to focus your superpower and use it wisely.
- OCD Heroes: You have the Superpower of Precision—you can detect every little detail! This power makes you great at tasks that need attention to detail and consistency, but you’ll learn to control your focus so you don’t get stuck in one spot.
- ASD Heroes: You have the Super Focus Beam—when you care about something, nothing can stop you! You can learn everything there is to know about a topic, and you have the unique ability to see patterns others don’t. Training helps you balance this power and connect with others, too.
- ODD Heroes: You have Super Strength of Will—your strong sense of justice and independence helps you stand up for what’s right. With training, you’ll learn to use your powers to lead others positively and constructively.
- PTSD Heroes: You have Super Awareness—your senses are heightened, and you’re always prepared. This makes you a quick thinker and a protector of yourself and others. Together, we’ll work to help you feel safe and calm, mastering your super-awareness.
Step 2
Superpower Training Sessions
Now that you’ve discovered your superpowers, it’s time to train like a superhero to master them!
Super Focus Training (for ADHD and ASD)
- Hyper-Focus Lair: In this training zone, we’ll use special brain games and creative projects to help you harness your Super Focus Beam. You’ll learn when to power up your focus for tasks that need it, like school projects, and when to power down to relax.
- Focus Shields: We’ll teach you how to activate your Focus Shields to block out distractions when you need to concentrate. You’ll earn badges for each task you complete by using your focus superpowers.
Precision and Flexibility Practice (for OCD and ODD)
- Puzzle Master Challenges: As a hero with the Superpower of Precision, you’ll tackle tricky puzzles and brain teasers. You’ll learn how to fine-tune your powers so that you can focus when it counts but also switch to new tasks when you need to.
- Flexibility Force Field: You’ll train to activate your Flexibility Force Field, which lets you take breaks when something isn’t working or when you feel stuck. You’ll earn points every time you practice being flexible.
Strength and Leadership Training (for ODD and PTSD)
- Hero Leadership Camp: Your super strength of will is great for leading others. In this camp, you’ll practice leading missions with your team, learning how to guide and inspire others to work together and reach a goal without using too much force.
- Calming Capes: Sometimes, super strength can be overwhelming, so we’ll teach you how to use your Calming Cape—a special tool that helps you calm down when emotions get big. With calming breaths, movement exercises, and mindfulness, you’ll learn how to relax your body and mind.
Awareness and Safety Training (for PTSD and ASD)
- Hero Sensory Lab: Here, you’ll practice using your Super Awareness to know when to protect yourself and when it’s safe to relax. With sensory-friendly activities, you’ll learn how to handle loud noises, bright lights, or busy environments like a superhero.
- Safe Zone Shields: You’ll also create your own Safe Zone Shields by practicing breathing techniques and grounding exercises that help you feel safe when you need it. You’ll build your own toolkit of shields to use in everyday life.
Step 3
Superpower Teamwork and Communication
Every superhero needs a team! We’ll work on building teamwork and communication skills so you can share your superpowers with others:
- Hero Squad Missions: You’ll work with other neurodivergent heroes on missions that require teamwork. Together, you’ll solve puzzles, create art, or play fun games. You’ll earn teamwork badges for helping others and practicing communication.
- Super Communication Tools: Sometimes it’s hard to explain your powers to others, so we’ll teach you how to use super communication tools like social stories, role-playing, and empathy training. You’ll practice how to talk about your superpowers, set boundaries, and help your friends and family understand what you need.
Step 4
Celebrate Your Superpowers
At the end of every training session, we’ll celebrate your progress! You’ll earn badges and rewards for each new skill you’ve mastered. These include:
- Master of Focus Badge
- Puzzle Solver Award
- Super Leader Medal
- Team Hero Trophy
And much more!
Every hero needs to rest and recharge, too, so you’ll have time to relax and reflect on how amazing it is to be a neurodivergent superhero. Each week, we’ll share stories of famous heroes who used their own unique abilities to change the world, just like you.
Final Mission
Embrace Your Superpowers
The final mission at Neurodivergent Hero Academy is to embrace your superpowers and use them in everyday life. You’ll learn that being different is your strength, and you’ll graduate with the confidence to be the superhero you were always meant to be.
Neurodivergent heroes have powers that others can’t even imagine. Training these superpowers doesn’t make you more “normal”—it makes you stronger, more confident, and ready to take on the world in your own unique way!
