On Friday, our ECE students who will be in Kindergarten next year, participated in our first ever ECE Step Up Day! They had a great time in our Kindergarten classrooms, Specials, Lunch and Recess learning what it means to be a Kindergarten Superstar!

Exciting day in Early Childhood! After an engaging unit on “Pipes and Tubes”, a parent helper taught students about working with pipes and natural gas! #EarlyChildhood @BrookfieldD95

@nasponline Its too bad this idea still requires advocacy despite being suprtd by evidence for decades (before BP1 was released?). Majority of practitioners abandon their their training and adopt old and ineffective assessment practices expected by schools. Nothing changes if nothing changes

The single most important first step to designing for equity and inclusion is deep, sustained work on the instruction that all students get in every classroom--UDL. #LeadInclusion #EdChat #UDL #Inclusion

[Lee Ann Jung, PhD @leeannjung]

Giving students options of the numerous ways they can show their learning, we welcome and acknowledge individual preferences, experiences, and diverse strengths and needs each one has. #LeadInclusion #EdChat #UDL #Inclusion
