UDL isn't something you "do" as much as the way you approach planning.
Approach planning through the lens of UDL by asking,

Post the UDL Assessment Flowchart near your desk to remind you of the importance of not only making your lessons universally designed but also ensuring that your grading practices optimize expert learning.

“The belief that as an educator you cause learning and the belief that all students can learn at high levels are two sides of the same coin. They must exist in tandem for inclusionary practices to move from a philosophical understanding to an intentional implementation. “

Making “Phonemic Awareness” fun!! Incorporating movement (using a cut up Twister board) and music while segmenting phonemes. They will get better and better! We also connected phonemes to graphemes after warming our ears up! #phonics#phonemicawareness#sor#pisdlachat#pisdmtss
There’s a place for small-group instruction, but it makes no sense to rely on it for hours every day—especially for reading comprehension. https://t.co/jd5ckuGGgJ
