✨New Podcast Episode: Joy & Play for ALL ✨ What if joy and play weren’t extras, but essential to learning? In the latest episode of UDL Unlocked, we explore the UDL guideline Nurture Joy and Play with fifth-grade teacher Anthony LaBella, an educator from an Open Access UDL Showcase Site. Together, we unpack how intentional joy, play, collaboration, and learner agency fuel engagement, belonging, and deep learning, especially for students who haven’t always experienced school as a joyful place. You’ll hear practical, classroom-ready strategies like: ✅Building clear learning goals into playful instruction ✅Creating strong norms for collaboration and student agency ✅Honoring identity, voice, and expertise across learners ✅Joy doesn’t distract from learning. It powers it! Listen now and get inspired to expand what’s possible in your classroom: openaccess-ca.org/podcast/episod… #udlunlocked
