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

As I write in my latest @edutopia article, tweens must negotiate a more complex social & academic system, w/out life experience, while in the throes of puberty. Teachers are not therapists, but here are 6 skills they can teach kids to reduce their stress. edutopia.org/article/promoti… – at Washington, DC

Wow. Reflecting a lot on this article. “The idea is for teachers and students to agree on a model of radical inclusion, to unwaveringly believe that there is no such thing as a throwaway person, that nobody deserves an unnecessary or disproportionate dose of suffering…”

UDL isn't something you "do" as much as the way you approach planning. Approach planning through the lens of UDL by asking, ❔What is the clear goal? ❔What is one barrier that would prevent students from reaching the goal?

Did you know that providing too many options is actually a barrier to learning. So, how much choice is too much choice? Research suggests providing 6 or more choices is just too much! The ideal number of options to provide is between 2-4 options. #UDL
