"It's great to see an example of how UDL principles are embedded into your lesson plan.  While you didn't specifically include Multiple Means of ..... in each section, I can see that the ideas of flexibility and choice are there. …"

Already thinking of September Part 2

Community of Learners! Remember the first couple of weeks of school? I remember looking through a math text and thinking that all I had to do was every little bit of homework and review every night and I would be able to do really well! I remember that feeling of meeting my friends after the summer holidays and feeling like I had heaps of friends. I was happy to be back at school, hopeful that I would be successful and feeling lucky to have my friends around me.My first vice principal called it…See More

It is an afternoon position within our school with Greater St. Albert Catholic.  I teach grade four in the morning.  I was lucky enough to be a participant for three years with the provincial technology one-one pilot project.  My background is special education - I love those behaviour challenges!  I just want to make sure this is a position that continues so it is a matter of defining the role and making sure others realize the value of it!  Is anyone else in a position where they go into other classrooms and support teachers at the elbow?

Hi Kerry,

The link to Mrs Anderson's class wiki doesn't work.

It's funny that you share VoiceThread as an example--we're  posting a VoiceThread for people to comment on Guideleine5 later today.

See you there.

Thanks for your energetic participation in the discussions.
