When we provide proactive, universally designed instruction, the need for reactive intervention drops.
🚫Instead of, “Students will write a five-paragraph argument essay,” ☑️Try this, “Students will write an argument,” WHY? This approach allows for a variety of outputs, such as essays, letters, and speeches, while staying true to the original language of the standard.
As we utilize technology in classrooms, part of the goal should be to free teachers from the front of the room so they can provide more individualized attention, working alongside students to support progress toward standards-aligned learning objectives.
Executive function forms the foundation for lifelong learning and independence. But here’s the thing: these skills don’t just appear. They need to be explicitly taught and scaffolded, for both students and adults. 🎙️New episode is live! hubs.la/Q038K_NG0 #FutureReady
Learning is a process, not a one-and-done event. Allowing students to revise their work demonstrates your belief in their ability to improve.
When we teach students the power of micro-failure and encourage productive struggle and resilience, our students will develop the necessary coping mechanisms and skills to prepare them for their current and future roles.
“Some days our students only talk to their best friend or the person they sit beside,” says 9th grade teacher Fatima Balouahi. By providing structure for their conversations, she helps students step out of their comfort zone to exchange new ideas and opinions. 💭
60+ metacognitive strategies, ready for the classroom, across processing, modelling, questioning, planning, monitoring, evaluation and discussion. Plenty of ideas. Plenty of application. Plenty of student progress. Use and share as you wish!
Research shows that one of the keys to workplace happiness is rooted in finding your purpose. As we take steps to close out the school year, use self-reflection as a tool to help rekindle passion and energy for your work.

Humans are hardwired to forget. But these research-backed strategies can boost retention! 🧠 📈
We have windows and pathways to the hearts and minds of our students and their emotions, and we can weave this knowledge naturally into the fabric of the standards we are required to teach. #UDL #ELA
Scaffolding instruction, put simply, is the difference between what a student can accomplish alone and what that same student can accomplish with the support of an effective teacher. There are many ways to scaffold - keep reading to learn more bit.ly/4998bR3
Many theories about the rise in teenage mental health issues exist. A recent study takes an entirely new approach. 🤸
When we teach students to become expert learners who are purposeful and motivated, resourceful and knowledgable, and strategic and goal-directed – the goals of UDL – students will be engaged, self-regulated, and more successful, teachers will be more effective. Everyone wins.
You can use a number of tools to evaluate UDL implementation in the classroom. But, ensure that teachers have a voice in selecting the tool and how it will be used to determine growth, differentiate support, and increase the outcomes of students. bit.ly/4brsoEd
