It was really nice to move from the theory behind IB to the practices that we can take back and apply immediately.

I was able to dive deeper into the UDL strategy and get a deeper understanding IB's approach to inclusion. Case studies, although brief allowed me to see what other instructors are doing worldwide giving me ideas of what I can do within my own classroom.

I do not have any time to currently do what is expected of a Middle School Special Educator, in a self-contained classroom. Most of my independent/accessory/Daily work is after school or at home, if it is going to be done.  I often do interventions during instructional time. Very challenging.

Yesterday opened my eyes to what IB (MYP) really means for my group of students. I am going to be able to go back to my school and discuss with my MYP coordinator how this works for our students and brainstorm ideas to bring it to fruition. Just as important, I understand much more the importance of this program for students with special needs, and how it can be modified to meet their needs. I can take this information any and every where I go. The information presented was interesting and absolutely pertinent!

This training has allowed me to reflect on what we are doing right at our school and what can be improved upon.  Consistency is the key to developing international minded students.

This was a very informative session for ALL teachers.   It seems as if we cannot do it alone.  We really need EVERYONE to buy in to changing the school culture as an inclusive setting.

Importance of incorporating more student led conferences - opportunity for students to talk about their accommodations and learning needs - what works best for them and how they connect to the learning profile.

Advocating a change in culture and polices of a school focused on student test results and data, to enhance inclusion might be the most challenging barrier to success of all divers learners in such school.

We need to work with our IB coordinator to figure out how we can begin to incorporate inclusion practices into our IB meetings.  We also need to provide more pd on inclusion.

Consider our own barriers at our school; think about ways that we can help to remove them. Who are the stakeholders. How can we support?

Presently, my school is undergoing significant changes and efforts to implement IB principles and protocols. My colleagues are eager to support diverse learning needs, but time for collaboration must be built-in to share strategies and plan for instruction.  I have suggested that the IB mission/criteria support diverse learning needs, but general educators require training and/or strategies for differentiation of instruction. So much to do...one step, or two simultaneously, at a time! Susan

I am relatively successful working in the classroom with students and enjoying my time there. I am struggling with when to pull students out who require individual services that cannot be provided in the classroom.

Our middle school students have study hall times and also end early at least one day per week. The high school students all have different schedules and can end as late as 5:20 so then have large chunks of free time throughout the day when they can meet with the student services department if needed.

My reading intervention class is one of seven periods scheduled into my students' day, so I do not need to pull them from anywhere. They take my class at the expense of a general education reading class or foreign language. It is the only class that we offer outside of the general education setting. Many of my students also receive their support from the speech pathologist while in my classroom.

I can do pull out for ind./small group during portions of English class time to my resource room to reinforce strategies and do assessments. I can stay in class as well to do this to model. Study hall is also an option.

We have been successful teaching reading to struggling learners in a manner that integrates IB approaches and and the learner profile.
We are in the process of including differentiation in the PYP planners for all students including special education students, Title 1 students and ELL students. We would love ideas and models of planners that include differentiation.

Collaborators and Friends:
I can learn and teach many things, and I do!  We all do!  However,
I need help with ideas of IB (MYP) programming projects that you have done at your school and/or others you are familiar with, that would fit the needs and/or can be modified to fit my students needs.

I would love some concrete ideas for use with my diverse population of students.  Where do you find the time?  What does this look like?    Thank you.
