PLEASE take a minute to read this interview with @Ready4rigor . Especially the parts about overscaffolding, unfinished learning, and engagement.

@MissSergi I didn’t show you this during student teaching? What was I doing. Lol

[Heather Pitcock @SpedTeacherHP]

@jclambert33 I hope it was recorded. I really want to hear her today but got caught in other things.

[Heather Pitcock @SpedTeacherHP]

@jclambert33 @ICASEIndiana @luann_purcell I agree completely!

💯There are no "special education students." All students are first and foremost general education students. All students belong to ALL of us. 💯 #LeadInclusion #globaled #inclusion #UDLchat

6️⃣4️⃣ Hours. On Monday mornings, this is how long it has been since some kids have had any positive interaction with an adult. How you greet your students in the morning matters. Be the light!

❤️Instead of seeing challenging behaviors as a manipulation, let's see them as expressions of unmet needs, and help students learn to have those needs met in better ways. Empathy and compassion are the key. ❤️ #LeadInclusion #edchat #spedchat #successforall

@jclambert33 @NancyHolsapple @Dr_G_Alazar @pennie_gregory It was great learning alongside you today.

Kids adopt our words as their inner voices.Over the next days,tune in to ur messages.Assess the outlook you offer ur kids.Are you generally more pessimistic or #optimistic? If you tilt to the 1/2empty side,remember change starts by looking in the🪞Kids are watching!

Kids are plain happier when they honor WHO they are & then perform in areas that nurture their strengths.Let's be Talent Scouts:Help kids find their assets-not deficits.Focusing on WHO they are[not WHAT we want them to be]builds confidence & helps kids thrive.
