One of the most common topics we are asked about is evaluation. Marnee Loftin wrote this great article explaining what collaborative evaluations should look like. Check it out! pathstoliteracy.org/blog/collabora…

“When teacher has to shut down the activity because it’s approaching end of time, it’s the intervener’s job to give closure to the child.” Mary Gyori, Chair Development Committee and board member @Nfadb on closure. #txdbsympo2021 #deafblind #education @TSBVI_Outreach @TXDBProject


"It's the intervener's job to make sure there is time for closure." What a great thought from Mary Gyori on another important role of the intervener. #txdbsympo2021


"You have to have a goal and a plan to know if you've made it in order to get closure."- David Brown. So true! #txdbsympo2021

“I love the concept of FINDING, NURTURING, and DEVELOPING beginning with the BELIEF that our students do and can communicate. Our role as the TDB is to meet them at their level with the language of touch”. Jennifer Magee #txdbsympo2021

"We have a curriculum too... we just call it 'the child.'" Boom! There it is. #TXDBSympo2021 #Education


"We owe it to all of our fellow travelers on this learning journey to equip them so that they can reveal our exceptional nature. And, in turn, for us to reveal their exceptional nature."- Paul Hart #TXDBSympo2021


Are we watching for and responding to our deafblind communication partner's gestures/language, or are we expecting them to conform to ours? Wow, powerful thoughts from Paul Hart. #TXDBSympo2021
