And while we are at it - can we please sing from the hilltops my hit MTSS Musical, “Supplement, Not Supplant.” Tier 2/3 is NOT a placement or an adjective to describe. It’s additional support that is provided in ADDITION to universally designed Tier 1. And scene. 🎶🎶#UDLchat

There are numerous frameworks that need to be put in place in order to support all students in inclusive and equitable ways. Instead of looking at these frameworks as being independent, or worse, competing, it’s important that we pull them together. https://t.co/6BWva7dK5A

@KatieNovakUDL You two have the BEST smiling faces! Congrats on your unmasked reunion :)

Whenever you hear anyone talking about summative assessments, be the person that goes, “Do you mean summative like after the student has learned it or summative like at the end of a specified time?”

That needs to be asked more often. Those are two very different things.

I had the opportunity to attend a session on equity by @KatieNovakUDL and @MirkoMilk a couple years ago and it made a huge impact. Others deserve the same opportunity. Please vote for their session so others can learn from them as well!

[Katie Novak @KatieNovakUDL]

If you could all take a second and vote for our session Equity By Design: A Blueprint to Close the Gap @MirkoMilk #EquityByDesign

When you’re transparent and consistent with feedback, students can more easily take ownership of their learning and progress.
