    In doing some research on benefactor Millie Speranza, first female president of a MN bank, I came across this awesome MN state document from 1919. What an awesome tool to compare state government today and in the past. Also, love that her family, Produce Exchange Bank, that grew to support many ongoing charitable gifts, is listed here with less than $5,000 in holdings. If you are a Catholic School teachers and want to pursue an MAED at St. Kate's, apply for the Millie Speranza fund!

  • One of the most common accommodations for students with special needs is preferential seating. This doesn’t always mean in the front row of the classroom right next to the teacher’s desk
  • Many general education mainstream students cannot perform the following simple tasks: telling time from an analog clock writing a simple letter signing their name in cursive note taking and study skills
  • Collaborative teaching looks differently depending on what school, level, and setting you are working. I am fortunate enough to work in a school where collaborative teaching is encouraged and celebrated. Teachers have common planning times, and professional development time is often set aside for Teachers to plan together.

  • Posting daily schedules Displaying classroom rules and expectations Encouraging peer to peer instruction and leadership Using signals to quiet down, start working, and putting away materials. Giving students folders, labels and containers to organize supplies. Checking in with students while they work Utilizing proactive rather than reactive interventions as needed Speaking to students privately about any concerns Employing specific, targeted positive reinforcement when a student meets a behavioral or academic goal.

  • culturally relevant pedagogy to describe a form of teaching that calls for engaging learners whose experiences and cultures are traditionally excluded from mainstream settings
  • First, teaching must yield academic success. Second, teaching must help students develop positive ethnic and cultural identities while simultaneously helping them achieve academically. Third, teaching must support students’ ability “to recognize, understand, and critique current and social inequalities.”
  • Geneva Gay
  • culturally responsive teaching to define an approach that emphasizes “using the cultural knowledge, prior experiences, frames of reference, and performance styles of ethnically diverse students to make learning encounters more relevant to and effective for them.”
  • positive changes on multiple levels, including instructional techniques, instructional materials, student-teacher relationships, classroom climate, and self-awareness to improve learning for students.
  • Like Ladson-Billings, Gay also places a strong emphasis on providing opportunities for students to think critically about inequities in their own or their peers’ experience.
  • Django Paris
  • culturally sustaining pedagogy, an approach that takes into account the many ways learners' identity and culture evolve

How to Practice Culturally Relevant Pedagogy | Teach For America - 5 views

shared by sadielaurenn on 21 Sep 21 - No Cached
  • Culturally Relevant Pedagogy (CRP) is a philosophical outlook towards one’s approach to teaching that informs the what, the how, and the why. CRP focuses on the academic and personal success of students as individuals and as a collective. It ensures students engage in academically rigorous curriculum and learning, feel affirmed in their identities and experiences, and develop the knowledge and skills to engage the world and others critically.  
  • Culturally Relevant Pedagogy equips us as teachers to provide our students with the type of education they not only deserve but are entitled to.  An education that recognizes and celebrates their identities, lived experiences and culture. An education that nurtures their inherent brilliance and infinite potential.  An education that doesn’t set them up to “fit into,” accept or replicate an inequitable system, but one that equips them with the tools to transform it. An education that cultivates strong trunks, beautiful branches, colorful leaves, and deep roots.

  • eachers tended to view the natural assets that boys bring to learning—impulsivity, single-task focus, spatial-kinesthetic learning, and physical aggression—as problems. By altering strategies to accommodate these more typically male assets, Douglass helped its students succeed, as the following vignettes illustrate.

  • Teachers designed lessons that captured student attention, which led to more meaningful classroom learning. This suggests that girls, like boys, elicit the pedagogy they need, though perhaps without (overtly) displaying resistance to the degree that boys do, and that both male and female Teachers of girls are especially attuned to what girls need in terms of pedagogy and activities that maximize girls’ engagement.

  • nstead of pulling children out of the classroom to offer them specialized instruction, in an inclusive classroom special education teachers come into the classroom. This allows for general education teachers and specialists to work together in the same learning environment, benefiting all students, who are offered additional resources and support. This support often results in greater academic gains for students with disabilities as well as students without disabilities.

Defining Visual Impairment for Parents and Special Education Teachers - 0 views

shared by clwisniewski on 17 Nov 21 - No Cached
  • As the term indicates, a visual impairment involves an issue with sight which interferes with a student’s academic pursuits. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) officially defines the category as “an impairment in vision that, even with correction, adversely affects a child’s educational performance. The term includes both partial sight and blindness.”
    • sadielaurenn
      sadielaurenn on 17 Nov 21
       
      We, as teachers, need to remember that these impairments "adversely affect a child's educational performance".
  • Early intervention can help a child strengthen his or her vision. This means that as a parent, you should waste no time if you suspect that your child possesses a visual impairment.

      I recently learned that an eye clinic near me, Brainerd, MN, provides free infancy eye exams to try to allow for early intervention of vision impairments!
  • While the causes vary, there are several common signs which may indicate that a child has a visual impairment. These include:Irregular eye movements (for instance, eyes that don’t move together or that appear unfocused)Unusual habits (such as covering one eye or frequently rubbing eyes)Sitting abnormally close to a television or holding a book close to the face

      This could be helpful information to give parents if they are concerned about their child having vision problems at school, or if they can qualify for help, as well as suggesting they see an optometrist for further evaluation.

  • Challenges in conceptualizing objects occur because the student lacks the vision to process objects the way that his or her classmates do. Sensory learning works well as a solution, according to NICHCY. This strategy helps students with visual impairments conceptualize by allowing them to use their other senses to understand an object.

      Allow visually impaired students opportunities to use their other senses through sensory learning.

    Hi there, Joe! I'm so glad that you posed this question in response to this great resource. As somebody with several ACEs myself, I think that using a good mix of empathy and sympathy is a great place to start. Put yourself in their shoes and think of what you would have liked for your teacher to have done to help you, whether or not you share that experience with the student. Also, your colleagues are on your team, so pick their brains for what works for them. Lastly, educate yourself and learn about what you can do for your student, and from your student! Sometimes it can be as simple as asking your student what you can do to help and hopefully they could find a way to communicate their needs.
