Module 7: Wrap - Up by Lisa Lee https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke Presentation of Learning en-us 2020-06-03 23:21:13 UTC 2023-07-17 03:17:57 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f331.png What did I KNOW? minji2 https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/609939431 My classroom philosophy focuses on inclusion and having a safe, welcoming space for diverse learners. As a new teacher, my knowledge on Special Education is very limited. The value in diversity is what I encouraged the most in my classroom. Therefore, my lessons centred around Universal Design. However, I only had a thin line of understanding of Special Education terms. Throughout this course, I was able to expand my knowledge on core concepts and designs that are valuable in teaching. ]]> 2020-06-03 23:23:41 UTC https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/609939431 What did I begin to UNDERSTAND? minji2 https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/609944655 My understanding and perspective of SUPPORT shifted after listening to Shelley Moore's at Heart and Mind Cultivating Resilience (2016), Sweeper Van talk. Her cupcake analogy of various supports was described as inefficient, whereas we could provide students with a "layer of cake" that contains all the supports in one. She also mentions that support is there so students can use them whenever and not making them "exclusive".  All students can access supports regardless of ability in the teaching and learning phase. I began to see why universal support is critical in all classrooms. ]]> 2020-06-03 23:30:26 UTC https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/609944655 How will I ADAPT what I learned in the classroom? minji2 https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/609944854 My focus is to provide universal support for my students in the classroom. I will differentiate my learning environment with flexible seating and Reggio inspired classroom. I strongly believe that the classroom is the third teacher and it is valuable to create that space.

By producing more Universal Design lessons, students would have the opportunity to learn and show in various ways.

Many of my lessons will rotate as guided groups. In that way, students are receiving materials (manipulative) and working with peers, similar to their level. I will have the opportunity to meet with small groups, re-teach an idea for struggling groups and extend an idea for advanced learners.

With my guided groups, I can identify my at-risk group and start targeted intervention. 

With Shelley Moore's video, I learned about growth mindset and would like to adapt the concept in my classroom. ]]> 2020-06-03 23:30:40 UTC https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/609944854 What do I still want to LEARN? minji2 https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/609945238 I still want to learn more about finding critical objectives when writing IEP's. ]]> 2020-06-03 23:31:13 UTC https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/609945238 Making Connections minji2 https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/609945506 At the end of the day, it all comes down to relationships and connections. I strongly believe that we need to build a strong bond with our students on a daily basis. ]]> 2020-06-03 23:31:32 UTC https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/609945506 BC Ministry Of Education. minji2 https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/611701262 BC Ministry of Education affirms that, "all student with special needs should have equitable access to learning opportunities for achievement, and the pursuit of excellence in all aspects of educational programs" (2016). ]]> 2020-06-04 18:35:27 UTC https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/611701262 UDL (Universal Design of Learning) minji2 https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/611708666
  • Multiple Means of Representation (What of Learning)
  • Multiple Means of Expression & Action (How of Learning)
  • Multiple Means of Engagement (Why of Learning)

    • UDL design is needed in the classroom to support all learners.

RTI is a "proactive approach to measuring students' skills and using this data to decide which types of targeted teaching to use" (Morin, 2014).

    • content: What the student needs to learn or how the student will get access to the information
    • product: culminating projects that ask the student to rehearse, apply, and extend what he or she has learned in a unit; and
    • process: activities in which the student engages in order to make sense of or master the content;
    • learning environment: the way the classroom works and feels

    Identification and assessment begins in the classroom.  For the first phase, it is known that teachers will initiate an in-depth observation of the student. Teachers should consult the parent and communicate to them from the very beginning. It is noted that for many students, collaborative planning and resulting interventions should resolve the concerns, but if this is not the case, teacher will move to phase two.

    Phase two is when teachers contact SBT (School Based Team), for extended consultations on classroom strategies, planning and having access to additional services outside and inside the school.

    Teachers are responsible for attending IEP meetings to determine appropriate goals for a particular student. It is also a teacher's responsibility to work with parents and students regarding IEP goals. ]]>     2020-06-04 23:23:11 UTC https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/612055447     References minji2 https://padlet.com/minji2/saxn51oqznauxjke/wish/619459584 BC Ministry of Education (2006), Retrieved June 09, 2020, from,
