Today is the 1st day of school and my dad’s 70th bday. He emigrated from Panama when he was a child. At 20 he enlisted, married his Ayer High school sweetheart, and left for Vietnam. He taught me what it means to have #grit which I’ll certainly need this year as an #educator

Anyone need a substitute?

I don’t wear 🌈 items to tell you who’s in my bed. I wear 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ so the family across the street knows they are safe. So the couple in the restaurant know they aren’t alone. So the boy who sees me notice him looking at dresses knows I won’t judge. I wear pride bc you make them hide

@ladyjugsoplenty What kind of phone do you have? What OS and version do you have installed? When you say “Google”, do you mean the Google App? This Tweet was specifically for Safari for iOS, but I can try and help!

[Kristin Mayo @kmayoTechTeach]

My brain can’t get used to the address bar being at the bottom of #Safari in #iOS15. Here’s how to change it 👉🏽 Settings ➡️ Safari

@KatieNovakUDL Love this! 💗

[Kristin Mayo @kmayoTechTeach]

If we want to fully embrace #UDL, we need to ensure the tools our students have access to are #accessible. Flexible tools offer flexible options. #bookcreator

[Book Creator from Kami @BookCreatorApp]

We believe in equality in education, which is why we will continue to make accessibility improvements for every learner:

💬 Speech-to-text
📹 Captions to video
🎙️ Transcripts to audio
⌨️ Keyboard navigation
➕ more

@mstranslator Thank you so much for updating your app!

[Katie Novak @KatieNovakUDL]

Strong #UDL practice starts with collaborating with students to ask, "what do you need to be successful?"

I truly believe that students know what they need to be successful and that everything that they need to follow their passion and achieve their dreams is inside of them.

"When you feel valued and appreciated, you tend to do better."

What is valued and what is valuable are often two different things. https://t.co/cOYeOYOqU0

It’s easy to get stuck on the content of the UDL Guidelines, but #UDL is bigger than that. Use this Tapestry to ignite your thinking!

Tip! When possible offer audiobooks as an option to students. Even if books are frustrating for students, researchers advise that hearing challenging texts aloud will help students become familiar with difficult vocabulary. #StudentLed #UDL @katienovakudl @Catlin_Tucker

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

@EmmaCottier @TheCobblestoneC @armstrongedtech @VirtualGiff Tiny Beautiful Things is a great read

3. Retake F&C
4. Ss complete #8parts w/ a partner or alone

Kids want to tell you about their lives.

They really do. Like, really. They want you to listen, to take interest, and to make comments about what they say. Do that. #RelationshipsMatter

[Kristin Mayo @kmayoTechTeach]

Checklists are great for learners of all ages (including adult learners)! I add audio files to my checklists for my Ss who aren’t yet fluent readers. #udl #executivefunctioning #accessibility

[Novak Education @NovakEducation]

Help your students build executive function skills with project maps, planners, checklists, and calendars. #FutureReady
