Are we perpetuating oppression or promoting equity? Teach learners how to navigate their environments. Empower them to think for themselves regardless of differences. Thanks to former NFL player Xavier Cooper, @FritzTesha, @alissonAposey, and @texthelp #UDLtouchdown

Just attended an amazing presentation by @LouiLordNelson and @AllisonAposey at the UDL TOUCHDOWN event with @texthelp! The analogy of the rocks and oysters, along with the back story, was so helpful for reframing how we support learners with differences. pheedloop.com/UDLTouchdown/s…

Bizarre? Every person, no matter their differences, has gifts they bring to the table. Who are we to predetermine what those gifts are, and how (or if!) they can be used? The expression of competency or intelligence is not bizarre. It's beautiful. #LearnLoveLiveDifferently

As a Christian school, we reject the unscientific, unbiblical, and unnerving practices of 16th century Christian Europe. Instead, one of our core design anchors is "Children are born persons." by #CharlotteMason, 19th century education reformer, unapologetically Christian

Part of building connection in relational education is embracing empathy. Not that you understand, "been there, done that" -- that would be impossible. Instead, step into each student's experience with curiosity and compassion, unwrapping our own biases and healing along the way.

True education is relational. Not just learning content, but building character and connection while developing proficiency in one's craft and finding one's calling.

Amazingly, it is these very attributes that enable #Neurodivergent individuals to be so creative and innovative. Maybe we are so used to so-called "normal" that we easily overlook what is truly good. #LearnLoveLiveDifferently

Imagine a space where learners felt safe to be different. Where their differences were really assets, with an Achilles heel, perhaps, but truly unique and powerful. Where they felt accepted and loved. That's our vision. #LearnLoveLiveDifferently

Teachers, remember to give your students plenty of opportunities to make mistakes. Mistakes grow your brain and make students think differently about a concept. It’s how the best kind of learning occurs. Besides, ‘being perfect all the time’ is just a disguise for insecurity.

Neurodiversity is insidiously intersectional. Approx. 25% of people in prisons have ADHD, compared to ~4% of the general population. Racialized neurodivergent learners are being multiply traumatized in school where they're supposed to be safe. This is not okay.

In a self-paced classroom, each student is given an appropriate level of challenge and grows at a steady pace throughout the school year. Here's how it works. bit.ly/3jzYvId @cultofpedagogy #edchat #teaching #edutwitter

Students can never have enough support and encouragement. Be that teacher and be that administrator. We all thrive when we have others invested in helping us be our best.
