Talk 56: Supporting Access and Inclusion for Students with Special Education Needs
Listen now
Description
The conversation around destreaming in Ontario has been ongoing due to the adjustments made to math curricula at the secondary level. As a response, elementary schools in the York Region District School Board have examined different levels of support for students who have been withdrawn on a long-term basis for mathematics instruction. This has included exploring opportunities for integration of students from withdrawal programs into homeroom classes. Join Elli and Jordan as they discuss their experiences collaborating with educators to implement High-Impact Instructional Practices into math programming anchored in universal design, critical consciousness, and culturally responsive and relevant pedagogy. We will examine how a Building Thinking Classrooms framework, along with minilessons, and deliberate practice supports greater access to mathematical content and opportunities for student inclusion.
