https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew Add your thoughts about the weekend en-us 2019-01-04 23:26:53 UTC 2019-01-06 14:19:10 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608609 My greatest take away from this weekend is viewing inclusion as a social justice practice. Often times when I thought of inclusion in education, I specifically only thought about students with disabilities. But of course, inclusion does not exclude anyone. Therefore an inclusive classroom is welcoming to all, regardless of ability, background and other factors. ]]> 2019-01-05 21:14:17 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608609 https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608616 Lots of examples of how to apply UDL in the classroom and for students.

Legal history of inclusive education - we have so much in place to support students with disabilities.

UDL gives us so many ways to think about how we are teaching and engaging ALL of our students.

I wonder how substantially we are adjusting lessons for the number of students with varying abilities in our classes - each student has such an in depth profile of how they learn and we need to balance instruction for the whole group.]]> 2019-01-05 21:14:35 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608622 tess_ross_callahan https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608632 I like the focus on different ways to engage the brain! I also like the idea that we can't engage everyone in the best way at every moment, but that we can try to meet children where they are as often as possible.]]> 2019-01-05 21:14:40 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608632 https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608635 Learning that inclusion in a classroom is not just for learning or physical disabilities but rather making sure everyone in the classroom is comfortable. Also thinking about the different disabilities you may have in a classroom and thinking about how to support those students. I have not really had to do this so doing so in this course allows me to gain experience with it.

I found it interesting to look at school stats and create our own classroom with those stats in mind. ]]> 2019-01-05 21:14:48 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608639 katieakaralexis https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608649 Today, I learned the differences between a 504 plan and an IEP. I wasn't very clear on the differences before today. I also learned about the differences between LD, ED, HI, OHI, etc. and which characteristics/conditions fall under each one. ]]> 2019-01-05 21:15:02 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608649 https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608652 Thinking of inclusion as social justice. The first article we read really resonated with me. We need to create a school (or at least classroom) community of inclusion rather than exclusion. If we start there, being an inclusive community, the way students, and teachers, will approach differences is from a place of understanding and compassion. I agree with this article that it is important to have these explicit conversations with our students (and ourselves), as well as model this behavior and show what inclusion looks like. ]]> 2019-01-05 21:15:03 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608652 mkeefe31 https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608658 Learned more in depth of the process of IEPS and 504s. ]]> 2019-01-05 21:15:09 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608658 corleycsims https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608660 - How one teacher can differentiate a lesson for all students 
- How one teacher can successfully address all the needs in his/her classroom without taking away from any of the other students. 
- I saw examples of how students with different learning abilities could still be present and participate in a general classroom - least restrictive environment. ]]> 2019-01-05 21:15:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608660 stachiwana17 https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608669 I learned a lot of ideas about how to make classroom more inclusive. I would like to learn more about the ways to meet the needs of each child. I would also like to look at more examples of UDL lesson plans to give myself an idea of what it would look like. ]]> 2019-01-05 21:15:25 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608669 tbator https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608670 One thing I noticed is that a lot of the successful different learners we encountered in videos etc. seemed to have a lot of parental support. Multiple videos we watched involved parents talking about how they had ambitions for their children to learn in a general class setting, and how they took on an advocacy role to make this happen. Given this, I wonder what teachers should to to help students with differences who don't have strong family or parental support. How can teachers make up for a lack of support in a student's home life?]]> 2019-01-05 21:15:25 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608670 lisa_putney https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608674 Today provided clarification on the different abbreviations in special education that I had previously heard but wasn't too sure on the meaning (UDL, DI, 504, IEP).

Today's lesson felt more real because the example was a third grade unit on biographies and a lesson that included a read aloud of a book on Wilma Rudolph, and my third grade class did the same unit and lesson this semester. ]]> 2019-01-05 21:15:29 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608677 https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608687 I wonder about that “bag of tricks” you can use to teach students effectively.

We have ELLs, students with attention disorder, EF difficulties, trauma, medical conditions, etc. I realized today that there are a lot of things that we are not currently doing to support those students and I'm looking forward to bringing my knowledge from this course to the classroom so we can better meet the needs of all students.]]> 2019-01-05 21:15:49 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608696 suzanne_kuder https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608733 2019-01-05 21:16:19 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608733 acox91 https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608738 Really appreciate the great questions people are asking and Stephanie's clear presentations and helpful illustrations through a variety of life experiences.  I can't help but thinking that UDL is really just a reflection of the structure of good teaching....]]> 2019-01-05 21:16:24 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608738 kfarrell133 https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608747 2019-01-05 21:16:33 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608747 https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608786 How are accomodations assigned for different students with disabilities?]]> 2019-01-05 21:17:34 UTC https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608786 https://padlet.com/sspadorc/ygmfq2w2g1ew/wish/317608825 I learned lots of new vocabularies and concepts.
