Thinking about modifications, differentiations, Universal Design Learning, and accommodations in relation to what you are seeing in the classroom

I would like to UDL more in my own classroom. The ways that I currently see UDL implemented in the classroom is through the access to materials. Materials such as fidgets and access to assistances that will show that the student will be able to accurately demonstrate their knowledge in the classroom environment.   I think the ways that these assistive materials are provided in the classroom does help students overall.

In  year where covid was not an issue, I think that having a sensory corner would be another way of having UDL be provided in the classroom without it standing out as being something different or unnecessary since it would not always be know what students might need the support of having a dedicated space for sensory needs.

How is teaching like an experiment that failed

for me it’s like a failed experiment in that I have to take the risk that students may still not understand all the information even if I craft a great lesson plan. it’s like you have to test and fidget and find the right circumstances and that still might need work because you’re not watching for certain things like you need to be. like you have to model how to do a specific thing but then you have to remember when to look up and check in that students are following the information

Tombow Pens!

I'm curious about grabbing one! I thought about getting a packet of them from a local craft store, but I'm hesitant to spend $20-ish on a set of fancy markers I might not like. Are they good? How likely are they to bleed through a page? I've just seen a lot of journalers using them and I'm curious.
