❤️ Students aren't manipulating adults with challenging behaviors. They are expressing, consciously or unconsciously, their unmet needs. Our job is to help #students learn to have those needs met in better ways. Empathy and compassion are the key. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders
🌍 Inclusion is not a program or set of procedures, it’s a mindset that 1. all #students belong, 2. I can teach all #students well, and 3. they can all learn and grow and flourish and succeed. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter
📚 Steps to mastery of a skill: 1. acquisition (I did it once) 2. fluency (I can do it consistently) 3. maintenance (I can keep doing it) 4. transfer (I can use it in new ways) (Hanson, et al., 1978) and still true. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat
🤝 The role of a co-teacher is not to be a paraprofessional assisting the lead teacher. The co-teachers collaborate to plan, implement, assess, and evaluate together. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #Assessment #TeacherTwitter
🛑 If the special education teacher is being asked to spend their time on homework or assignment help, we limit the time they can provide actual intervention. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter
🌍 If our school culture lacks inclusivity, it lacks equity. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter

💡 Do we justify students' placements in special education rooms to meet the students' needs? Or the adults' needs? #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter
🔑 How well #students with #IEPs succeed depends largely on the expectations teachers hold for them. Never underestimate the combined power of high expectations and awesome instruction. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat #TeacherTwitter
🏀 For teachers who are basketball fans: Paraprofessionals should work like they are in 'zone defense,' not 'man-to-man.' More classroom support is great! Attaching an adult to a student all day, not so much. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter
🔍 Not completing homework is not proof of insufficient learning. Thus, missing homework shouldn't be recorded as a zero—it's simply missing data. Better, don't grade homework at all. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat #TeacherTwitter
🎓 We are wasting the resource of our special education teachers if we limit them mostly to helping students complete work. Their skills can reach so much farther when they are in the role of co-designing instruction. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL

🌟 Co-teaching models allow more students to excel, because they have access to more #teaching expertise. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter
When #edleaders are supported and developed through systems that are intentionally designed, powerful outcomes are possible—for systems and students. Read more from @LongBeachUSD’s Jill Baker, Ed.D. and our @JuliaRafalBaer in The 74

🔄 Instead of asking special education #teachers to support assignments and #homework , let's give them the latitude to support SKILLS and deep understanding. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #UDL #TeacherTwitter
