Foundations of Special Learning Needs - May Group

Thanks to the group who met virtually this morning in an effort to learn news approaches to learner-centered instruction! I look forward to your posts as you reflect on the possible ways the 10-minute interview can enhance instruction. Let me know the tweaks you plan to make this valuable tool work with your specific students. Also, please let me know one idea to implement UDL into your classroom.

You all rock!
