@RutgersAltRoute A5- Take into consideration that not all scholars are the same, we react differently and should keep appropriate accommodations for all individuals. #AltRtEd#Sped
@RutgersAltRoute A4- Brain breaks where students can be active, move around and get their “sillies” out. Doing multiple activities within a lesson instead of solely lecturing or providing a slideshow. Keep the lesson interactive and engaging. #AltRtEd#Sped
@RutgersAltRoute A3- Incorporating more Kinesthetic learning strategies for all learners to be engaged with one another and reward students with praises for even minuscule accomplishments. #AltRtEd#Sped
@RutgersAltRoute A2- We can promote self awareness, remind scholars that we are the product of how much effort we provide, and lastly make it known that everything we do is achieveable and to help build creativity. #AltRtEd#Sped
@RutgersAltRoute A1- Some challenges include modifying for all needs, where they’re multiple levels/differences. But also an opportunity to view strengths and help plan lessons going forward. #AltRtEd#Sped
@RutgersAltRoute A5. Utilizing the data to further drive my instruction and modify it as needed. Trial and error with various platforms and assignments- learning what fits best for my students and their needs. #AltRtEd#growthmindset
@RutgersAltRoute A4. Feedback is crucial and imperative in any setting- particularly in education. We need to build the foundation to help students utilize their best potential. Providing feedback, resources, and examples is a great start! #AltRtEd#growthmindset
@RutgersAltRoute A2. Moreover, from Q1, student-teacher relationships form early in the school year and it is imperative that together we establish and maintain a healthy fun atomosphere. Also, promoting differentiation. #AltRtEd#growthmindset
Carol Dweck refers to the power of “yet”. Teachers have the power to influence the mindset of students. The research mentions the following mindset alerts – believing that achievement is natural ability and learning to cope with failure and mistakes. #AltRtEd#growthmindset
A1. Students have expectations which can lead to overthinking and anxious thoughts. These pessimistic thoughts/feelings can be overcoming through positive reinforcement and framing a positive experience from day 1. #AltRtEd#growthmindset
@RutgersAltRoute A5. SEL is important to help students in the classroom and outside. We can educate parents/guardians and provide them with ways to integrate it at home. As well as inform them of extracurricular activities that may be resourceful to students’. #AltRteEd#StandUpToBullying
@RutgersAltRoute A4. It is a learning opportunity to learn new ways to implement differentiated interventions and SEL. With that being said, educators can monitor behavior patterns that may trigger and promote HIB. #AltRtEd#StandUpToBullying
@RutgersAltRoute A3. Collaborating with our co-teachers is imperative because, it allows us to see how students are in their classroom as well. We learn more about our students’ well-being and can help them more efficiently.#AltRtEd#StandUpToBullying
@phoebeshively@RutgersAltRoute Those settings make a huge difference! There’s only so much we can control virtually and this can help give peace of mind!
