A3. Start by normalizing the fact that we all have strengths and growth areas. Acknowledging this with the entire class may help reduce the fear of behavioral challenges. Peer feedback can also be more powerful than adult feedback. #inclusionpd

A4. Flexibility, intentional co-planning with strengths in mind, assistive technology, active engagement and peer supports! #inclusionpd

A6. Visual tools are required for some but benefit all. Often times, S’s are unsure of the roadmap so the more we can help create that along the way, better. Sara Ward’s “Get Ready, Do, Done” strategy is a must for middle school S’s. #inclusionpd

A8. Mindset is sometimes our biggest barrier. When the team believes S’s can be included, it happens with thoughtful, intentional planning. Some strategies are sharing our successes. That will keep you focused when it gets hard, BC this work IS hard! #inclusionpd

A9. One of our teams is attempting to bring the supp services portion of an IEP into a visual document. The team lists the support and provides a visual of what it looks like in action. Brilliant idea Jen Townsend #inclusionpd

A10. It’s amazing how much our S’s communication and social skills improve by truly being a part of the classroom community. Our S’s amaze me every day at how much support and empathy they provide each other! #inclusionpd
