@RpsAgainstTrump Agreed!

Robert De Niro: “It makes me so fucking angry that we're here talking about a piece of shit like Donald Trump."

The sudden deportation of a Honduran family this month has shocked members of Vermont’s migrant community. But the case is part of a trend of stricter immigration enforcement in the state, which has driven deportations to the highest levels on record. vermontpublic.org/local-news/202…

⏳ If half the class requires tier 2 support, the school doesn't need more tier 2 #intervention strategies or programs. There's a need for more universal design. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TecacherTwitter

🔑 How well #students with #IEPs succeed depends largely on the expectations teachers hold for them. Never underestimate the combined power of high expectations and awesome instruction. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat

💡 Special Educators: let's avoid calling students you serve "my students." It's well-intended, but it can perpetuate the view that students with #IEPs belong to special #education. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL

So true! 🙌

Can this be said enough?

You can’t intervene your way out of a Tier 1 problem.

🏀 For teachers who are basketball fans: Paraprofessionals should work like they are in "zone defense," not "man-to-man." More classroom support is great! Attaching an adult to a student all day, not so much. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter

"👉 There are no Tier 1 students, or Tier 2 or Tier 3 students. The tiers are not about students, they're about systems of support 𝘧𝘰𝘳 students." -Stephanie Stollar @sstollar6

👥 Students who have #IEPs are not "special education students." They are simply students. They belong to every educator they have. Receiving a service shouldn't impose an identity. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL

👥 Tier 3 intervention is not #specialeducation. Tier 3 solely implies intensive support. Not every #student who requires intensive support has an #IEP. Not all students with an IEP need intensive support. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL
