Welcome to #ATchat. How is everyone tonight? Who is still teaching? Here in MA, we are in school until about June 20 - 26th, depending on the school district.
When was your last day of the regular school year? We never know when school will end due to the snow days. It's usually determined by about April #ATchat
Q1: #ATchat The end of the school year is a time for students to reflect on their learning. What inclusive tools and strategies do you use to ensure all students are able to reflect on their learning?
A1 I use OT sessions to write a paragraph over several sessions about what we've learned. But need to do more for my AT students... Need ideas. #ATChat
A2 for elementary age students, SeeSaw is an excellent option for reflection - can draw, record your voice, type, take photos or videos. Great UDL tool. #ATchat

@JudithSchoonov1 Your answer to Q1 fits in well with Q2. You are structuring reflection for action by having students write their own EOY Progress Notes. #ATchat
Used 2 have them write their own goals 2. Especially the 1s who didn’t really want to receive services. I asked them what they thought they would need to do in order to not require the extra services and then they worked towards those objectives. We presented data at IEP. #ATchat

Really empowering for most. Especially the ones working on legibility & written language composition. They created rubrics as editing checklists & rated their own work #ATchat

A3 Usually we have good discussions before we make large systemic changes but sometimes it falls on larger Corporation type structure deaf ears. I would love to build in more of this into the District AT practice #ATChat
Seems like that concept can extend across a number of areas - Does reading and writing about time management/research/study skills/organization/overall EF skills improve these areas? #ATchat
A-3 Our AT team used to use the QIAT Indicators to reflect on our performance and shape planes for next year. Our new administrators are not there yet. Many changes this year! #ATchat

Do you use SeeSaw? It's an excellent tool for that type of activity, especially at that grade level. Also can use book creator apps or even Flipgrid. #ATchat
I'm taking a teaching using technology course and one of our assignments was participating in Twitter chat. I love AT and i like hearing how other ppl use it so i chose this one!
A5 survival? Covered full OT caseload for 3 months, plus my other job duties. And still did work towards a small on the side private practice #ATChat#lotsoflearningtodo
A5: It was a tough year w/Harvey and an ice storm. Never really got our footing but did team w a dyslexia teacher for parent skill training using Snap&Read + Co-Writer. Also, presenting at a state conference. #ATchat
Tips and Tools for Reluctant Writers- A UDL approach. Teaming w another AT lead in a neighboring ISD. Both districts have invested in Universal tools. Some of our presentation will be how we helped promote change. #ATchat
A-5 But seriously, I have really pushed myself to explore and experiment with technology beyond my comfort level. The @MSFTaccess presentation @atiaorlando really got me going. You know me, Karen, low tech is my comfy place #ATchat
