UDL is about recognizing that every learner has amazing assets that allow them to learn at high levels when provided with grade-level instruction that is accessible, engaging, linguistically appropriate, culturally sustaining, and anti-racist.

Poetry at the Super Bowl is a feat for art & our country, because it means we’re thinking imaginatively about human connection even when we feel siloed. I’ll honor 3 heroes who exemplify the best of this effort. Here’s to them, to poetry, & to a #SuperBowl like no other 💛

Ever wonder, why #UDL? Because we are preparing students for their future. The way that we have been teaching students for decades will no longer meet their needs. #UDLNow

By creating an environment that is nurturing, respectful, supportive, and nonjudgemental, our peers and students will be open to try a variety of options and choices that help them self-regulate their emotions and set goals for both emotional and academic growth. #SEL

Expert learning is not about being good at everything. It’s about focusing on your individual needs, knowing your strengths and weaknesses, and relying on supports in areas where you aren’t as strong.

We need to focus on how our students will be successful. If you think about all the reasons why students will not be successful, they won't be. #UDLNow

Million Dollar Question: What Does UDL Look Like? bit.ly/3uFv5fM by @katienovakudl

UDL is not something you can just “do,” and then “not do.” When you commit to the core beliefs about UDL, you consistently look for barriers, and eliminate them.

Thank you Katie Novak for the opportunity to share this with the #udl world.
