Bold white text on a blue background reads, "Students with IEPS are just students." Bottom right shows a circular logo with "lead inclusion."

👥 Students who have #IEPs do not *belong* to special education. They are general #education #students no matter where they are or who they are with. ALL students belong to ALL of us. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

An image with a blue alarm clock on the right and text on the left: "If speed isn't the skill being taught, why time anyone's work?" on a white background.

⏲️ The most frequent IEP accommodation is extended time. What if we offered extra time to any student? If speed isn’t what we’re evaluating, extended time doesn’t change the standard. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

Smiling woman stands confidently in a colorful classroom. Text reads, "Inclusive educators know they can teach all students well."

💡 A truly inclusive culture is only possible when all teachers in the school see themselves as inclusive educators who can teach all students well. #LeadInclusion #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders #TeacherTwitter

A hand stacks blocks with blue arrows, illustrating "steps to mastery": acquisition, fluency, maintenance, transfer. Text cites Haring et al., 1978.

📚 Steps to mastery of a skill: 1. acquisition (I did it once) 2. fluency (I can do it consistently) 3. maintenance (I can keep doing it) 4. transfer (I can use it in new ways) (Hanson, et al., 1978) and still true. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat #EduSky

Black blocks with various facial expressions on an orange background. Text reads, "Regulation is more than behavior. It’s the ability to manage emotions."

💔 Before punishing a behavior, calmly and empathetically validate the emotion, even when it's aggressive. Emotional regulation is about helping a #student manage emotions and behavior. Changing the behavior isn't enough. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

Colorful sign with "You belong" on a geometric background, surrounded by plants. Text reads: "Actively supporting a sense of belonging is fundamental to being inclusive."

💌 Actively supporting a sense of belonging for all #students is a fundamental part of being inclusive. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

Text on a textured background reads: "There are no 'your students' and 'my students.' All students are OUR students!" A logo for lead inclusion is in the corner.

💡 Special Educators: let's avoid calling students you serve "my students." It's well-intended, but it can perpetuate the view that students with #IEPs belong to special #education. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

A teacher attentively listens during a conversation in a classroom. Text overlay reads, "Supporting teachers is as important to inclusion as supporting students." A logo says "lead inclusion."

👩‍🏫 Sometimes #teachers request special educators pull students from their class because they lack of confidence in their skills. Supporting teachers is as important as supporting students. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

Text reads, "Tier Three intervention isn’t special education. It just means intensive intervention, & anyone might need it." A pyramid illustrates intervention tiers, with topics like "Universal Design for Learning" and "Access." Logo reads "lead inclusion."

👥 Tier 3 intervention is NOT #specialeducation. Tier 3 only means intensive support. Not all who need intensive support have an #IEP. Not all with an IEP need intensive support. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

A weathered wooden sign reads "Be Kind" with a blue heart. Below, text emphasizes teaching kindness, empathy, and respect.

💓 If we want students to be kind, empathetic, considerate, and respectful, we must both demonstrate this to them and explicitly teach them strategies. These are skills, not inherent traits. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL

A red square in the background with a blue rectangle in the middle with these words in white, Learner agency is something we build through intentional design.

Learner agency isn’t “do whatever you want.”

It’s built through clear goals, structured choice, skill-building, and reflection.

When we design with intention, students take ownership.

Text reads, "Students with IEPS are just students." The phrase is prominently displayed in bold and regular blue text on a light blue background, conveying inclusivity. A circular logo in the bottom right corner reads, "lead inclusion."

👥 Students who have #IEPs are not "special education students." They are simply students. They belong to every educator they have. Receiving a service shouldn't impose an identity. #LeadInclusion #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

Bold white text on a dark brick wall questions special education's intent: "Do we place students in special education rooms to meet the students' needs? Or is it sometimes justified to be convenient for adults?" Logo says "lead inclusion."

💡 Do we place students in special education rooms to meet the students' needs? Or is it sometimes justified to be convenient for adults? #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

An adult and child sit on a hallway floor, talking. Text reads, "Behind every disengagement is a story and a barrier to remove." Tone is supportive and understanding.

👊 If a #student is not engaged, our primary task is to determine why and remove the barrier. There is a story behind disengagement, and #UDL helps us find solutions. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

Three diverse teachers collaboratively reviewing a document, smiling and engaged. Text overlay reads, "All students benefit from special education strategies when teachers co-plan." Logo in the corner says "Lead Inclusion."

🏫 Inclusive school leaders structure the master schedule for co-planning, and include special educators in grade-level or content-area meetings. All students benefit from special education strategies when we do. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

Blue fabric with a Velcro strip, featuring the text "A student who has been velcroed to a paraprofessional has not been included." Logo in the corner.

👥 A #student who is velcroed to a paraprofessional all day has not been included. Exclusion can happen even when sharing the same room. LRE is a low bar. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

Blue text on a light blue background reads, 'In inclusive classrooms, everyone is Seen, Heard, & Valued.' A logo with 'lead inclusion' appears in the bottom right."

🏫 An inclusive classroom is a place where every learner feels seen, heard, and valued. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

Happy to share I’m part of the 2026 UDL Fellows Cohort this spring/summer 🌞 Looking forward to learning alongside educators across disciplines and continuing to build courses that support diverse learners and ways of knowing. Grateful for the opportunity 👩🏽‍🏫 #UDL #HigherEd #AcademicSky

Text reads, “Place inclusively, and ask, ‘How can I ensure the student gains valuable learning?’” on a colorful watercolor background of blue, green, red, and yellow. The "lead inclusion" logo is at the bottom right.

🏢 When making placement decisions, the question should not be whether the #student can meet grade level expectations. The question is, "How can the student learn something valuable in this setting?" #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

Text overlay on a blurred hallway reads, "Schools become inclusive because of teachers who are collaborative, caring innovators who make it work for each student." In the corner, a logo reads "lead inclusion."

🏫 #Schools don't become "#inclusive schools" by #learning strategies and implementing programs. They become inclusive because the people are collaborative, caring, innovators who make it work for each #student. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

Three educators engage in a discussion near windows. Text reads, "Classroom teachers and special educators need scheduled time to identify barriers & plan together." The atmosphere is collaborative.

🏢 #EdLeaders: To implement UDL well, classroom teachers and special educators need scheduled time to identify barriers and co-plan. This investment pays off significantly for every student. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd

A teacher engages with diverse young students at a classroom table, focused on activities. Text reads, "Teaching isn’t best evaluated by watching teachers, but rather in watching students."

🏆 Learning isn’t about what we deliver—it’s about what students receive. To reflect on our teaching, we look to the students, what they do, how they engage. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders

AI can generate lessons, assessments, and activities in seconds. But it doesn’t automatically design for learner variability. Here's why.
