# data[].attributes.body
~This resource discusses strategies teachers can use to make the regular education classroom appropriate for students with special needs, because including students of all backgrounds and abilities increases tolerance and empathy among students. These teaching strategies help students of all backgrounds be successful in the regular education classroom.

Supports, Modifications, Accommodations for students with disabilities

# data[].attributes.body
~This resource discusses how accommodations remove learning barriers in the classroom to provide every child with equal access to learning and gives examples of modifications which are changes to what a child is taught and expected to do in class. The resource also talks about how accommodations, support, and modifications make it possible for students to work around the effect of their disabilities.

~This supports special needs students by giving examples of accommodations and modifications such as break up testing over several days, providing different resources when reading a book (visuals, audio taped, etc), and using a tutor in the classroom. It can be difficult for a general education teacher to work individually with children with disabilities while also meeting the needs of the whole class. Tutoring not only provides increased practice and reinforcement for students with disabilities, but also promotes stronger social skills for all students and encourages friendships.

Ways to build a restorative culture in a classroom

# data[].attributes.body
~This resource helps teachers with creating restorative practices within their classroom. This approach uses various communicative techniques focused on affective statements and proactive community building activities.

~Instead of making classroom rules before the students arrive, we would consider making rules together as a class. This will support special needs students by giving them the opportunity to contribute to the rules that will govern the class we develop as a sense of ownership for the classroom. Mindfulness is the ability to be fully present and aware of where you are and what you are doing. Mindfulness allows special needs students to become more self-aware with classmates and teachers. It also increases focus, and reduces stress and anxiety.

MTSS is an aid to IEP's to help students get the specific type of learning they need, such as "

Designing and providing specially designed instruction based on student need,

Drafting present levels of academic and functional performance (PLAAFPs),

Writing ambitious but realistic IEP goals,

Evaluating progress toward IEP goals, and

Intensifying specialized instruction for students who are not making adequate progress."

MTSS is designed to help students get the right amount of help that they may need.

This resources can help teachers narrow down the help of each student by pin pointing exactly what they need and in each subject. The different Tiers of the MTSS can help spread of each student.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Students with disabilities, like all students, benefit from school-wide implementation of a multi-tiered system of supports (MTSS). Most students with disabilities (95%) receive at least part of their instruction in general education, and 63% spend most of their time in general education (i.e., 80% or more of their time in general education). As a result, they benefit from the positive MTSS outcomes found in numerous studies, including sustained academic performance,  reduced behavior problems,  reduced inappropriate referrals to special education, and  improved graduation rates.

When schools implement individualized education programs (IEPs) within a larger school-wide MTSS, students with disabilities are able to receive intensive intervention through data-based individualization at Tier 3 while ensuring access to aligned Tier 1 programming as well as Tier 2 intervention in other areas of identified need. Data collected through MTSS support IEP teams in developing and implementing the IEP [Sec. 300.320], including:

Designing and providing specially designed instruction based on student need,

Drafting present levels of academic and functional performance (PLAAFPs),

Writing ambitious but realistic IEP goals,

Evaluating progress toward IEP goals, and

Intensifying specialized instruction for students who are not making adequate progress.

Implementation of MTSS can also assist districts and schools in meeting other obligations under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and applicable state laws. When effectively implemented, a comprehensive MTSS approach provides data and infrastructure for implementing the following state and federal requirements:

The chart is a helpful resource of the Universal Design for Learning. It has three helpful points to demonstrate how to help students with special needs.

Representation is the visual key to help students learn.

Expression is undestanding the students interaction and seeing how they act towards the lesson.

Engagement is different way to help students get excited about the different subjects.

With all three types of helpful points the educator can help students with all learning types. This resources represents visual, audio, and hands on learning.

-This resource was found on the reading rocket website. The reason I chose to share this resource was that there is a lot of visual and auditory learners that would benefit from watching this video and learn about the benefits of UDL in the classroom.

-The resources discuss the importance of helping every student reach their full potential. In the video, the speaker talks about the importance of technology in the classroom. The speaker believes that it is beneficial for students to mess around with technology and explore different ways to express themselves and prove their understanding.

-This resource is an informative YouTube video that breaks down UDL. The resource includes a lot of information regarding lesson planning, benefits of UDL, and classroom example.

This supports students who need that extra support. All students learn differently and at different rates. UDL is a helpful tool that allows the classroom to room smoothly because of all the modifications and accommodations. Some students like myself dislike taking multiple-choice tests the UDl allows students to prove their understanding through other options like an oral presentation or an essay format. This resource also touches on the importance of variety. This is beneficial for both students and teachers because the student will stay engaged while the teacher meets all their student’s needs.
