I'm comfortable giving the student who needed 4 attempts to master a skill the same grade as the student who only needed 1 attempt.
'If' a student learns is more important to me than 'when.'

Kids want to be included and care very much about what their peers are doing. Which is why we should always be looking for edtech that supports Tier I, II, III, ELL, and SPED, with the same program, for a more inclusive classroom 🙌🏻

Yaassss!!! 🙌🏻 Prevention over intervention.

The best schools don't focus all their energy on intervention programs; instead, they focus on strong tier 1 instruction to limit the need of intervention programs. #edchat #education
Never let your students guess how you feel about them; every student should know that they are special and important in your classroom. bit.ly/2GO2q31

"I have a student who has experienced a lot of disruptions in his education and his life...He often walks out of class, or when in class, always needs one-on-one support—and many times that is not enough." Does this sound familiar? See how Lexia helps: okt.to/ypAtvx
