Active Demonstrating and UDL: Thursday Admin

Check in with Active Demonstrating goals: Goals and Reflection
Last year, we did a "Thinglink" to show UDL around the classroom. How have we moved on? What have we put in place for our learners? 

On Monday, you will do a 5 minute presentation per group to show how we are embedding strands of UDL in our spaces. Your group will take on one of the strands. You will have time to prepare for this during the session... 

Questions to consider: 

How are we doing this now? 

How are we reducing the barriers for our learners?
What are we doing in our spaces to ensure that we are planning for all of our students? Give examples.
What are our next steps? Literacy/ Maths/ Inquiry?

 You also need to read the 2 readings for Monday and give a short summary to a small group.

Provide multiple means of Action and Expression

This is the future of education and it will change everything. We need to let students express themselves in ways that work for them… Sometimes we hold them back if we don’t give students a choice. Making ideas into reality at MIT's 'Future Factory'
