This year we know there just may be a few more than normal. We need to be flexible and get more comfortable with formative assessments so that we can adjust our instruction on the fly. We need to look closer to our neighboring grades benchmarks and see how they connect and how we can be proactive at weaving them together. ]]> 2020-08-25 16:06:44 UTC https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697659148 https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697662631 Agree we always have students at varying levels with gaps.

Some students even begin the year with holes or gaps. Every year, specially this year, it will be important to look at the neighboring grades and decide upon what prerequisite skills students will have missed and need taught this year to better grasp grade level skills through a woven model.]]> 2020-08-25 16:10:50 UTC https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697674965 https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697675469 It is important to focus on the grade level standards, even though our students are going to come in with missing skills.

I think as special ed teachers we often juggle this task of weaving in unfinished learning but I believe this year it will be much more intense. However, the fact that everyone will be doing this it may help close the gap a bit more for our sped kiddos. ]]> 2020-08-25 16:12:18 UTC https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697680847 https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697683390 2020-08-25 16:12:56 UTC https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697683390 https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697683563 Instruction needs to be purposeful and meaningful. It will be important to figure out where each student is academically and how we can help scaffold student learning with gen. ed & spec. ed. This may be a great opportunity for students with IEPs or interventions to close the learning gap. This year will be a great opportunity to collaborate with other teachers from different areas to problem solve the best way to help our kiddos.]]> 2020-08-25 16:12:59 UTC https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697683563 https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697690909 It is so important right now to really be thinking about the standards we are teaching and being meaningful with our instructional time. Making sure that we are proving ample supports and scaffolds for our students so that they can access the content and we can fill in any gaps is extra necessary. ]]> 2020-08-25 16:14:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697690909 https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697692705 This information gives me a little comfort in knowing that I don't have to try and fix all the gaps that students will have from last year right at the beginning of the year. It makes much more sense relationally to meet students where they are and move forward.

Our high-level learners may not show up with "unfinished learning" or persistent learning gaps because of their previous high-level performance. They, too, missed instruction from March to May, but may not show a decline. They need support with the appropriate level of cognitive demand for tasks, and assignments. They need to learn something new every day. ]]> 2020-08-25 16:16:16 UTC https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697697122 https://padlet.com/lindseyrichey/bssr1qz7c9jk4s0j/wish/697703338 The process to accelerate learning is universal tier work.

It is scaffolded and complements grade-level work already happening. We need to assess and be data driven and teach these skills in universal instruction. It is profound to think 81% of work kids are doing is not at grade-level.
