Presentation by: Ann Pimentel
Session: Session B| Time: 10:30Am – 10:50AM | Location: Room 202
As educators, we use critical thinking and problem solving skills to navigate various needs in our classrooms. This workshop is an ‘Escape Room’ type challenge, a hands-on and ‘5-dimensional’ experience to unlock the assessment mysteries of a classroom. You will collaborate in groups to discover the various learning differences of the class and the adaptations that will allow each student to reach their fullest potential. Can you find the Universal Design for Learning keys to unlock success?
