Itinerant Resource Teacher @OttCatholicSB, Passionate about Special Education, Trauma-informed teaching, & supporting all learners to reach their full potential

🔓 So many "special accommodations" for #students with IEPs have the potential to help all students. Let's open those doors for everyone through universal design for learning and offer the options to all. #LeadInclusion#EdLeaders#Teachers#UDL#TeacherTwitter

@alvareztany @amandamsalinas @OCSBSpecEd This PD will be super helpful for schools! We need creativity and new ideas to develop EA schedules that support students to reach their goals and develop independence too!
Getting to know our students is important equity work so we can build on their strengths, grow from stretches, and remove barriers.
Integrate interests & passions for greater engagement!
Plus it just brings joy to get to know them better as you connect! Fun part of our job! ❤️
The most important component of the MTSS framework is its foundation—the practices we put into place in every classroom with every student. The universal design for learning. #LeadInclusion#EdChat#UDL#Inclusion#EdLeadership#edtech
@bamccarney@juliecardinalm@shannylee@StMichaelOCSB This is amazing! I love that it is an engaging, creative & hands on activity to promote early literacy skills. Differentiating learning experiences through student interests is awesome!
