& that’s a wrap! we did it! during a pandemic 👏🏼👏🏼 I couldn’t have done it without the help of my amazing cohort. I am forever grateful for the knowledge & friends I gained over the past 15 months.

@AdamBrownEDU Seriously! I miss having hobbies. Who has hobbies still??

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

A2: find a dang HOBBY! We need to disconnect now more then ever! I have found it even harder now that I am working remotely, to disconnect; tips welcome! #CultureED

[Adam Brown, Ed.D. @AdamBrownEDU]

Q2 is now up! #CultureED

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

A4: you know, honestly zoom is a great way to connect quickly. sometimes throughout this crazy time, I have felt more connected through zoom than I have when I taught in self-contained classrooms #CultureED

[Adam Brown, Ed.D. @AdamBrownEDU]

Q4 is now up! #CultureEd

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

A5: create self-fulfilling boundaries that you aren’t willing to cross, connect with fellow colleagues for support, and most importantly, remember- YOU ARE NOT IN THIS ALONE #CultureED

[Adam Brown, Ed.D. @AdamBrownEDU]

Q5 is now up! #CultureED

@AdamBrownEDU This is a true statement! 👏🏼

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

@TigerMolly11 @AdamBrownEDU You’re clearly crushing it! 👏🏼 but don’t forget to take time for yourself 💛

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

A1: exhaustion has a new definition during distance learning. It doesn’t matter if you have 145 students or 24... our jobs have drastically changed & we are learning a whole new skill set to teach in distance learning. Educators need to stick together, others need to understand

[Adam Brown, Ed.D. @AdamBrownEDU]

Q1 is up! #CultureED

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

@TigerMolly11 @AdamBrownEDU Wow Molly, props to you... I don’t know how you do it, but somehow you do. Just remember how lucky your students are to have someone dedicated to their learning. Remember the outcome. You’ve got this 👏🏼👏🏼

#RogueSPED A12: I believe that determining a child’s LREA should be a similar process (if necessary) to that of an SST process. Data drives placement and supports. Placement and supports drive #STUDENTSUCCESS.

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

#RogueSPED A10: In order for a child to be successful with the General Ed curriculum, it is imperative that they are placed in their LRE. That will support their access and success with the general Ed curriculum.

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

#RogueSPED A9: the LRE (least restrictive environment) is where a student is successful in a particular setting. Some students just might need some push in supports and/or accommodations while others might need moments outside of the GE classroom. Each child’s LRE is different.

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

@MsJPaschal Ooh I like that - both ends of the spectrum under 1 umbrella 👏🏼💛

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

@MsJPaschal In CA it’s called Specialized Academic Instruction (SAI)

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

#RogueSPED A7: Oh, 100%!! Not as much through the students’ eyes, but sadly I see it from coworkers.

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

#RogueSPED A5: AS MUCH DATA AS POSSIBLE. students who go through our SST process have at least 6 weeks of data taken on them to determine if the supports given help the student access the curriculum or if the next step might need to be a 504 or an IEP assessment.

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

#RogueSPED A4: specialized instruction for each individual student. Allowing each student to access the curriculum at their level. An opportunity for all students to learn. Also, SPED teachers are ROCKSTARS, just saying #teamSPED

[Kelsey McGloon @kelsey_mcgloon]

#RogueSPED A3: In VBCPS we had a gifted resource teacher that would assess students with an actual assessment to determine if they were eligible for gifted services.
