@BaltCitySchools Itinerant #AdaptedPE teacher Pamela Silverberg shared this accommodation for #Adaptober: A First, Next, Then, Last wall The images can be easily swapped out for any manipulative or motor skill. Now students can readily see the flow of the work.

🤔 Each of us is a “jagged profile” of strengths and needs. When we see past labels, we design support that’s truly responsive to every learner. #LeadInclusion #UDL #InclusiveEd #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #TeacherTwitter

Thanks for sharing Jim.
I’ve been updating some of my lessons to make them more useful across general and adapted PE—with clear visuals, flexible entry points, student choices, and quick learning checks. Here’s a free throwing & catching lesson to try! 👇 #PhysEd #AdaptedPE docs.google.com/document/d/1…

Great example of a high quality visual that can help support all learners.
Created a new visual to display in the hallway. These are the three things we have been practicing for how students enter the gym. canva.link/qsuc8kaqvwg56y9
