It is important to plan your lesson to accommodate all learning styles.

It is important from day one to have clear, outlined expectations for students and communicate them. It is also important to have some sort of activity to help ease students nervousness as well as the teachers.

I learned the ABCD model for writing goals. I plan to incorporate that into my success criteria.

In this module, I was reminded to model professionalism for the students. It lets them know what is expected of them and holds everyone accountable and to the same standards.

I learned that UDL assessments help remove barriers and provide various ways for students to show their learning. I have started offering students the opportunity to choice one of the "I CAN" statements from the day and answer it as an exit slip. This provides student autonomy and allows them to pick what they are comfortable in. 

I really like the weekly check in form that the CTE instructor uses both in person and remote. It may seem like it is redundant but it may just reach the right person at the right time. 

This topic taught me to be more flexible when assessing students due to multiple barriers.

I learned in this lesson to be more intentional with my feedback but also allow time in the lesson for one on one discussion to understand a students learning and provide individualized feedback.

I learned what the ABC questioning technique is and I think it would be good to try in my classroom. 

From this section, I plan to incorporate more probing questions into my lesson to allow for deeper, more meaningful answers.
