Another gorgeous afternoon for a #UDL Walk in the Park with Samantha Forsythe and our Central Region AT friends! I loved our in-depth conversations. My only wish was for more time! Capital Area IU CAIU TaC

Remember that UDL is an expansive framework, it can't be learned in a day. Think of it more like the skill of learning to speak a new language. It takes time, will come more naturally to some, and is learned little by little. Take small steps. Start here👇 bit.ly/466td1Y

Just unveiled! The Reading League Compass! A comprehensive resource for multiple stakeholder groups to understand the Science of Reading. #ItTakesALeague thereadingleague.org/compass/

“Kids with Dyslexia don’t get what they need with just tier 3 supports, core instruction matters for all children.” Kareem J. Weaver #TRLConf23

Wise words from Kareem Weaver during The Reading League opening keynote. One of my favs so far “If your classroom is boring, don’t blame that on phonics!” #ItTakesLeague #TRL @CapitalAreaIU Capital Area IU CAIU TaC @KimShank87 Dr. Sara Lobaugh Ami Healy

“No one can promise reading will make you successful and give you joy in life, BUT it can change the odds! Learning to read protects the options.”#TRLConf2023

So excited to kick off an Intro to UDL with an amazing group of individuals at the #CAIU. Bill Wilmot starting off with a great quote, “UDL gives me a systematic way to think about how to be flexible.” Samantha Forsythe CAIU TaC

Calling all Pennsylvania educators! CAST and the CAIU15 invite you to a FREE mini-conference on March 22 at 10am ET. Join sessions about UDL, network with other PA educators, and get ideas for supporting all students! Capital Area IU Lisa Smiley Jesse Gluckman (he, him, his) ow.ly/qEFP50QMVc1

Collective efficacy is critical to supporting educators and implementing UDL. We all have to believe, at our core, that we can engage and challenge all students to learn in our classrooms and that we are supported by our colleagues and our leaders to do that.

I can’t recommend this unique experience enough! An amazing, intentionally-designed professional learning opportunity that is well-worth your time. And maybe you will even get to help a lost dog along your way! 🤗

I'm excited to share that the proposed updates for UDL Guidelines 3.0 have been released for public comment! Click the link below to review the graphic organizer draft. lnkd.in/eRG_a8NS #UDL #professionallearning #bravespaces #equityineducation

My brain exploded in a Neurodiversity and ABA discussion session this morning when a participant said, “If the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem starts to look like a nail.” 🤯 I want to remember that phrase. Samantha Forsythe CAIU TaC

Assessment prep is time consuming, if done "the old way". Instead, provide students with a template (you can use this one!) and empower them to generate review questions to prepare for end of year tests. Follow the steps in the post below and try it out! bit.ly/3Uko3vX
